Barrio de Triana Capilla de la Virgen de la Estrella

In San Jacinto Street, in Triana's neighborhood, we have a small chapel that, happens to many visitors unnoticed: the Chapel of the Virgin of the Star.The Virgin of the Star is a religious image very venerated in Seville to which many parishioners have adoration. The Virgin of the Star is one of the religious images that go out every Palm Sunday in the Holy Week of Seville. It does it between the fervor of the people who gave to Her the nickname of "The Brave". This nickname imposed her because it was the only image that dared to go out to the street the Holy Thursday in 1932, when in Seville there was a very hostile environment towards everything religious. The Virgin of the Star, defying to all the opposite ones, went out this day in procession together with the public of her neighborhood.
