The Church of St. Anne is located in Seville's Triana district. The construction of this temple falls on the end of the 13th century, and today it is one of the most ancient religious buildings of the city.

The construction of the Church was started in 1276 by king Alfonso X, who, as legend has it, wanted to build a temple in gratitude for deliverance from a severe eye disease. Completed the construction was in the early 14th century, as evidenced by the inscription on one of the walls of the building. After a strong earthquake that occurred in 1355, the Church building was badly damaged, and in the late 14th century it has been restored. In the mid-16th and early 17th century the building was built two chapels. In 1755 there was another earthquake, known as the "Lisbon", during which the Church building has also received major damage. Restoration of the Church was carried out under the project and under the guidance of architect Pedro de Silva, who made significant changes in the original appearance of the building.

In plan the building has three naves and three polygonal apses. Vaulted ceilings in Gothic and supported on columns with graceful brackets. The walls of the building are built of brick, columns, brackets and archways made of stone.

The altar was created by Miguel Franco in the early 18th century, probably in 1710. In the center of the altar is placed the image of the virgin of the Rosary. In 2010, the altar was restored in its entirety in its original form.

In 1931 the Church of St. Anne was given the status of national historic landmark.
