Descrizione

Stroll through the iconic streets of Écija and let yourself be captivated by its incredible palaces and churches. Learn about its past and its importance in history.
Have you heard of the City of 11 Towers?

Écija is known by different names: Astigi in Roman times, which left us with significant remains, and Istiya, due to the remains of walls found in various places along its streets.
However, nothing compares to the Baroque period, when so many churches were built that it had to be called the "City of Towers" and the "Baroque City" because of its many palaces, which can still be seen in its streets today.
