This stunning baroque charity hospital preserves centuries of Sevillian compassion within its ornate chapel and cloisters, where masterpieces by Murillo and Valdés Leal depict acts of mercy with haunting beauty. The hospital's serene courtyard offers respite from the bustling streets near the bullring, while its intimate galleries reveal how faith and philanthropy shaped medieval Spanish medicine. Walking these candlelit corridors feels like stepping into a Velázquez painting brought to life.
