Continuing along Corredera we get to the Plaza de la Rosa where the market was until 1928 when it was remodelled for the first time taking on a neo-Mudejar style. It was later demolished in 1975.

The final remodelling was performed in the year 2000, maintaining its currect modernist appearance.

As you enter this square, to your right you will find La Tercia building, a plain construction of the early twentieth century, used primarily as a wine cellar housing. At the present time its ground floors are used as bars and shops, while the upper building is awaiting restoration.

To your left you will find the Garnelo Theatre, a recently restored modernist construction of 1917.

 

Located at the end is the Ermita de la Rosa which names the square. This church was inaugurated in 1763 and contains a single nave with a barrel vault ceiling. The main altarpiece in a rococo style is presided over by the image of Nuestra Señora de la Rosa (Our Lady of the Rose), a work of art by the Seville maestro Pedro Duque Cornejo. There are also some interesting seventeenth century paintings from the parish church of Santiago and the old church Compañia. The images of Jesús Presco (Jesus Taken Prisoner) by amadeo Ruiz Olmos and the Maria Santisima de la Esperanza (The Holy Mary of Hope), by Manuel Leña, stand out. However the most important work or art in this place of worship is Cristo de la Columna (The Christ of the Column). A magnificent work of art by Juan de Mesa 'el Mozo' (the Handsome) painted around the year 1601.
