Basilica de la Macarena
Bécquer, 1, Seville, SpainTel: +34 95 4901800
The architect Aurelio Gomez Millan designed this church in 1949 and it houses the city's most venerated holy image of the "Virgen de la Macarena". Nobody knows for sure who the sculptor was but it is generally accredited to Luisa Roldan ("La Roldana") from the second half of the 17th century. The altarpiece featuring the "Virgen de la Esperanza" was created in 1949 by Juan Perez Calvo and the surrounding religious imagery is the work of Ortega Bru. The procession that departs from this church early on the morning of Good Friday is truly dramatic and well worth waiting up for. Mass is conducted at 9a, 8p, 8:30p M-F, 9a & 8p Sa, 10:30a, 12:30p, 8p Sundays & holidays.
