We visited the monastery before walking on to the tremendous Roman ruins of Italica, as suggested by the Rough Guide. Although we were glad we'd done so, the warning I would like to give is that by doing things in this order you can be exposed to the incredible heat of the day by the time you get to Italica. On reflection, I would have done things in the opposite order, or simply got there earlier in the day, because we had to skip some of Italica due to the unbearable lunchtime heat (mid-September). However, the monastery is certainly worth a visit and was almost deserted when we went on a weekday morning. There are excellent English language information cards in each room so that you can understand what you are looking at, and it was free to enter. The bus M170a leaves from stand 41 at the far end of Seville's main bus station and stops on the main road outside the monastery, if you request it, before continuing to the ruins of Italica. Allow about half an hour to see the monastery.

The monastery is a re-work in progress. The place is easily accessible and off the beaten path. It is a quiet piece of regional history that should be on the list to see. We spent nearly two hours admiring the beauty and the peaceful nature of the place. The entrance is free and it is a cultural gem.

This monastery is authentic, interesting and besides that also free for EU-members. It is around 20 minutes walking to Italica, so not that far.

We were staying in Santiponce, so visiting during its late afternoon/evening opening on a Saturday was easy. Free admission was nice, however explanations were solely in Spanish. ( It appeared as if in the past English translations had been available, but not any more.). So we wandered around the facility for a brief period, admired some religious artwork on the walls for a time, and then left, really none the wiser about the history of the place, nor the purpose of the various rooms we saw. A missed opportunity really,

I wanted to visit Italica only but was recommended by a local tour guide to see the monastery as well.
It is very interesting, quite well preserved. All in all you will need a tour guide, it is free entrance. It was extremely nice as I was inside with a guide. He could explain everything that I wanted to know and more.
I recommend this monument, it is really worth a visit

We had seen this massive building from the motorway on our way to Italica. By car it is actually only 5 minutes away and could be easily walked. The building looks but is open to the public. The hours are restricted so check their web site for opening times before you visit. The entrance is round the back of the building. A large part of the building is derelict and will never be renovated as it is of little historical interest. The main church and cloisters have been well preserved, the two altar pieces are sumptuous and there numerous frescos.
Add this to your itinerary when you come out to Santiponce to visit Italica.

We walked to the monastery from Italica, about 30 minutes, we got there at 12.40pm and were prepared to wait until 1pm, but people came out and told us you just knock on the door and the lady lets you in, which she did. it was a very good self guided tour,with wonderful fresco's, paintings and statues. As it was free to enter we bought a souvenir from the little shop. We caught the bus back to Seville, just head to the main road, not back to Santiponce, although we managed to catch it from there!!

We visited on the way to Italica (ask the bus driver to let you off at the corner, then just walk down the hill and look for the signs.) Check the opening times before you go. The entrance is a small door in the middle of a huge one. It is opened on the hour, but at other times you can knock and someone will come to let you in. The building has been renovated after years of misuse and neglect, and it has a lovely peaceful atmosphere. There are information leaflets in English which are helpful in understanding the history of the mediaeval Monastery.
After your visit it is a pleasant walk via the Roman theatre if you want to visit Italica, where you can catch the bus back to Seville. Plenty of bars and restaurants

We saw this massive building from the motorway on our way into Seville little thinking it was open to the public as it looked to be derelict. Unfortunately a large part is and will never be renovated as it is of little historical or artistic interest however the main church and cloisters have been well preserved and are a real ‘must see’ when in Seville.
The two altar pieces are sumptuous and the frescos worth the trip to see on their own – and that’s from an atheist!
Add this to the itinerary when you come out to Santiponce to visit Italica which is at the other end of the town.

Buenos días, Me gustaría visitar el monasterio, ¿como se puede llegar desde Sevilla en transporte público?
Me gustaría me informaras porque llamo al teléfono y no consigo comunicar. Gacias

Desde la estación de autobuses de Plaza de Armas los autobuses que van para Santiponce tienen paradas cerca del monasterio, puedes preguntar al chófer en qué parada te viene mejor y preguntar en qué andén coger el bus en la misma estación. Asegúrate antes de los horarios y días para organizar bien la visita. Espero que todo bien y disfrutes de un lugar tan maravilloso
