Why go
This art-led route moves from Seville's civic centre into increasingly intimate collections and courtyards. Start between the Real Audiencia and Seville City Hall, then give the Museum of Fine Arts the longest interior visit for Murillo and Zurbarán. The Palace of the Countess of Lebrija adds Roman mosaics and dense tilework before Casa de Pilatos brings Mudéjar craft, Renaissance sculpture and gardens together. Casa de Murillo is optional; use it only if the shorter biographical stop still fits after the three substantial interiors.
Useful to know
- Give the Fine Arts Museum the longest block and keep Casa de Murillo optional.
- Check each palace ticket separately; their upper floors may follow different access rules.
