Mairena del Aljarafe presents a distinct green side in Parque Porzuna. Parque Porzuna is a protected peri-urban park covering just over 20 hectares. Along its botanical educational trail, visitors can identify holm oaks and wild olive trees, among other species. For outdoor activities, the park offers facilities for public use: a fitness trail, a health circuit, a dog run and a recreational area.
Nature and exercise
A linear park is located on Avenida Mariana de Pineda and Calle Hermanas Mirabal, crossed by one of the cycle paths in the municipality of Mairena del Aljarafe. The park has a health circuit and is used for walks. This means that different forms of public exercise coexist in the townscape, from the botanical educational trail to the designated facilities and the paths of the linear park.
Culture and history
Mairena del Aljarafe has a municipal route covering the most important monuments and works of art in public spaces. One of the independent historical stops is the Arco de la Prusiana. It is located in the old town of Mairena del Aljarafe, at the intersection of Guadalquivir and Zurraque streets. The Arco de la Prusiana is the only surviving architectural remnant of the former Hacienda La Prusiana, a building constructed in the 18th century. The preserved portal of the Arco de la Prusiana was reconstructed with a segmental arch, cornices and battlements.
El Equilibrista also makes a distinct statement in the public space. El Equilibrista is a bronze sculpture intended for display in a public space and is more than two metres high. Since 2015, the sculpture has formed part of the streetscape of the boulevard in Ciudad Expo.
The Hacienda de Porzuna has a simple rural farmstead. The former oil mill of the Hacienda de Porzuna led to a third courtyard, around which the adjoining building sections were grouped. A deep trench was dug in front of the farmstead of the Hacienda de Porzuna; as a result, Roman and Muslim soil layers containing numerous ceramic remains became visible.
The Iglesia Parroquial de San Ildefonso is a 16th-century building. The Iglesia de San Ildefonso preserves a Sacred Heart altarpiece dated 1612 and is located on Plaza de Blas Infante.
