If you like brooding religious painting from the 16th century half as much as I do, then you will have a great time here. There are some cool sculptures to. Their realistic sculpture of the severed head of John the Baptist is way better than the one at the Cathedral in Seville.
Seriously though, it was less than 2 bucks to get in, and they had free lockers. Only takes around an hour to see it all. Worth your limited time in Seville.

A fantastic art museum! This has to be one of the most beautiful art museums I have visited, the building is absolutely stunning with beautiful gardens, courtyards and a huge room that felt like the interior of a cathedral
Beautiful art museum featuring classic Spanish art from the renaissance and medieval periods. Unfortunately there’s a lack of English text. I’d do a little research before you go in so you know more about what you’re looking at. Truly some beautiful work in there though, something to do in Seville.
I was going in there not expecting much and wow was I surprised to see the magnitude of the exhibition and of the building itself. One of my favorite art museum in the city!
It was sooo great.
I am not a European, so I had to pay.
But only 1.5 euros!!!
And I could not see the all paints because I was so hungry.
This place is so underestimated.
If you have some interest in arts, you should be there.
Que envidía you guys

Very pretty museum and very cheap to enter (€1.50). A lot of religious art which was interesting but you have to really love it to fully appreciate it because it's a lot of the same thing.
The museum itself is pretty and well thought out to follow a route without getting lost. It's not huge so if you have a spare hour and it's raining (only rained one day out of 4!) Then it's a good place to seek shelter and experience some Sevillian art!

The museum is reported to have the second largest collection of Spanish religious paintings, after the Prado of Madrid. I was impressed by Murillo, and a few paintings regarding the life of Sevilla. The building itself is very enjoyable too. Nice and friendly staff. There is a market of local artists outside the museum. Since the museum is free, why not get a piece to support the locals?
