Santa Cruz church of Seville was originally located at the Plaza de Santa Cruz. It was destroyed by the French in 1811 and therefore moved to the former church of the Clérigos Regulares Menores del Espíritu Santo, where it is located today.

The church is located in the famous Barrio de Santa Cruz, which was once the "new" Jewish quarter of Seville.
Its actual appearance with typical Sevillian style patios, narrow streets and picturesque plazas dates back to the beginning of the 20th century.
