Purchase of Moroccan Biscuits at the Convento de Santa Florentina

The Convento de Santa Florentina is one of the most emblematic enclosed convents in Écija, famous not only for its convent architecture and Baroque church but for guarding a unique confectionery tradition handmade by the nuns: the famous bizcochos marroquíes.

During your visit to the convent's revolving door (torno), you will have the opportunity to purchase this sweet, so representative of Écija's monastic confectionery, characterized by its spongy texture and its delicate flavor of citrus and cinnamon. A small living sample of traditional gastronomy that has remained intact through the centuries.

It is recommended to go in the morning, respecting the prayer times of the religious community. No prior reservation is required; simply go directly to the convent's revolving door located in the heart of the historic center.
