Things to do in Utrera in April
Gastronomic route and visit to the Santuario de Nuestra Señora de Consolación
The Santuario Diocesano de Nuestra Señora de Consolación is the temple with the greatest devotional and historical projection in Utrera. Built in the 16th century over an old hermitage, this building brings together Renaissance and Baroque architectural elements, standing out for housing the patron saint of the city and having been a center of jubilee pilgrimage for centuries.
Recorrido histórico por el Castillo de Utrera y su plaza de armas
El Castillo de Utrera es una fortaleza medieval levantada sobre un promontorio natural que domina la campiña sevillana. Construido por el concejo sevillano sobre los restos de una antigua torre musulmana para defender la banda morisca, mantiene en pie la gran Torre del Homenaje y tramos de sus murallas perimetrales.

Exhibitions and Baroque architecture at the Centro Cultural Casa Surga
The Centro Cultural Casa Surga is an old 18th-century Baroque house-palace rescued from ruins through an innovative architectural intervention that combines the original facades and bays with contemporary design load-bearing structures. Today it constitutes the main contemporary art and photography exhibition space in Utrera.
Heritage and flamenco route along Calle Niño Perdido and the Jewish quarter
The Niño Perdido street is part of the medieval network of Utrera that housed the old Jewish quarter and the alcaicería alley. This vaulted passageway preserves the traditional flavor of Andalusian alleys with brick arches, whitewashed facades, and a deep connection with the flamenco singing that saw the birth of great local figures.
Tasting of artisan mostachones in the old town of Utrera
The mostachones de Utrera are the most emblematic sweet of local pastry making, flat, pressed sponge cakes baked on parchment paper in traditional wood-fired ovens since the 19th century. Taking a route through the centuries-old workshops in the city center is an essential gastronomic experience for any visitor to the region.
Visita guiada al museo del Hospital de la Santa Resurrección
Conocido popularmente como el 'Hospitalito', el Hospital de la Santa Resurrección fue fundado en 1514 por los mecenas Catalina de Perea y Ponce de León, siendo una de las instituciones asistenciales benéficas en funcionamiento más antiguas de Andalucía. Su espacio musealizado exhibe un rico legado histórico y artístico ligado a la asistencia sanitaria de la época modernista.
