The Hospital de los Venerables was built as a home and hospital for elderly priests in the late 17th Century. Located in the Barrio Santa Cruz district, it is now a cultural centre that holds temporary exhibitions about the history and culture of Seville. Tours can be taken of the Hospital`s baroque church which boasts outstanding frescoes by Juan de Valdes Leal and his son Lucas Valdes. There are also fine sculptures by Pedro Roldan and Martinez Montanes.
