Fodor's Review:

This museum is second only to Madrid's Prado in Spanish art. It's in the former convent of La Merced Calzada, most of which dates from the 17th century. The collection includes works by Murillo and the 17th-century Seville school, as well as by Zurbarán, Velázquez, Alonso Cano, Valdés Leal, and El Greco; outstanding examples of Seville Gothic art; and baroque religious sculptures in wood (a quintessentially Andalusian art form). In the rooms dedicated to Sevillian art of the 19th and 20th centuries, look for Gonzalo Bilbao's Las Cigarreras, a group portrait of Seville's famous cigar makers.

Cost: EUR 1.50
Open: Tues. 2:30-8:15, Wed.-Sat. 9-8:15, Sun. 9-2:15
