Plaza de Santa Cruz

This guide to Plaza de Santa Cruz in Seville opens with the death of the painter Bartolome Esteban Murillo, who fell from a scaffold in Cadiz and was buried in 1682 inside the church that once stood on this spot. You'll hear how worshippers walked over his grave for well over a century, unaware, until French occupying troops demolished the church in 1810 without moving his remains first. The narration follows the Academy of Fine Arts' 1858 attempt to mark what had been lost. Look for their small plaque on the building facing the square.
