El Hospital de la Misericordia era una casa pía ubicada en la ciudad de Sevilla que fue fundada a fines del siglo XV con el objetivo principal de dotar a jóvenes pobres y huérfanas para tomar estado de casada. Este hospital administraba los legados testamentarios dejados bajo su custodia para distribuirlos en diversas obras de caridad y sólo podía entregar dotes para religiosas, abandonadas y descarriadas si tal era el deseo del donante. The Mercy hospital was a pious house located in the city of Seville which was founded in the late fifteenth century with the main objective of providing marriage dowries for poor and orphans. This hospital administered the bequests left in their custody for distribution to various charities and could only deliver dowries to religious women, abandoned ones and prostitutes if that was the wish of the donor.
