Architectural Walk through the Parish Church of San Bartolomé

The Iglesia Parroquial de San Vicente Mártir in Tocina is a monumental Baroque-era temple built between 1703 and 1711 at the expense of the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem (Order of Malta), an institution to which the town belonged as an encomienda. Its exterior facade stands out for the presence of two imposing twin towers decorated with colorful ceramic tiles, constituting a key piece of the Baroque heritage of the Vega del Guadalquivir.

The interior with three naves exhibits a rich main altarpiece from 1719 presided over by images of Saint John the Baptist and Saint Vincent Martyr, accompanied by the local patron saints. Among the temple's sculptural heritage, pieces attributed to the workshop of Juan de Mesa stand out, such as a notable image of the Crucified Christ and the group of Saint Anne with the Child Virgin.

Access to the parish is free of charge. It is advisable to go during the opening interval prior to the afternoon liturgical celebrations, usually starting from 19:30h in winter and 20:00h in summer, respecting the religious use of the building.
