The headquarters of the Seville School of Sacred Art is located on the main avenue of San Juan de Aznalfarache, on the boundary with Mairena del Aljarafe, in a strategic location that combines the tranquility of an environment ideally suited to study and artistic creation with excellent connections to Seville and its metropolitan area.
San Juan de Aznalfarache occupies a unique place in the history and landscape of the Aljarafe region of Seville. Particularly noteworthy is the Hill of the Sacred Hearts (Cerro de los Sagrados Corazones), one of the town’s most emblematic landmarks, home to the Sacred Heart of Jesus Religious Complex. This important site is renowned for its artistic, historical, and spiritual significance and maintains close ties to the religious identity of the Archdiocese of Seville.
This privileged location allows the Seville School of Sacred Art to enjoy excellent accessibility while remaining free from the traffic, parking difficulties, and congestion often associated with the historic city centre. As a result, it provides an ideal environment for learning, artistic practice, research, and academic life.

Headquarters
The new headquarters of the Seville School of Sacred Art, located at Avenida de Mairena, 9 (San Juan de Aznalfarache), is currently undergoing refurbishment and is scheduled to open its doors in September 2026. Conceived as a space dedicated to teaching, artistic creation, and research, this new campus represents an important milestone in the development of the School and its commitment to specialized education in Sacred Art.
The future facilities have been designed to accommodate the various disciplines that form part of our academic programme, establishing the School as a centre of excellence for artistic training, heritage conservation, and the transmission of traditional crafts associated with Sacred Art. To this end, the campus will include specialised workshops tailored to the needs of each area of study, including spaces dedicated to religious painting, sculpture and religious imagery, conservation and restoration, mosaic art, and other artistic disciplines. It will also feature an art gallery conceived as a place for exhibition, dialogue, and the promotion of the work produced by students, faculty members, and collaborating artists.
In order to share the vision and scope of this project from its earliest stages, some of the images displayed on this page are digital visualisations created using artificial intelligence. These images are intended for illustrative purposes only and provide an impression of the appearance, layout, and atmosphere that the various spaces are expected to have once the refurbishment works have been completed.
As the transformation of the campus progresses and the different facilities are completed, these visualisations will gradually be replaced by real photographs, allowing visitors to follow the evolution of a project destined to become a leading institution for the teaching and practice of Sacred Art.
