Renewal of the San Luis de Los Franceses service

The monumental complex of San Luis de los Franceses is located in the historic center of Seville.

Built between 1699 and 1731 by the architect Leonardo de Figueroa, it is made up of the old Jesuit novitiate, where its chapel stands out, and the public church. The interior is beautifully decorated by the painters Lucas Valdés and Domingo Martínez, the images and altarpieces of the temple being mostly works by the sculptor Pedro Duque Cornejo.

The main altarpiece is profusely decorated and is a spectacle of forms, mirrors, lights and colors, highlighting a large crown on a canopy presided over by a canvas of Saint Louis, from the Zurbarán school. The Domestic Chapel is located in the old novitiate, separated from the main church. It was a private church with a single nave and is profusely decorated with frescoes, paintings, images and relics, works by the painters Lucas Valdés and Domingo Martínez, along with images of Duque Cornejo.
