En uno de los barrios más populares de écija, el barrio de San Gil, podemos ver esta capilla callejera dedicada a la patrona de la ciudad, la Virgen del Valle. La capilla está adosada a uno de las paredes de la muralla que cercaban perimetralmente el alcázar. La cubierta es en forma de bóveda semiesférica e interiormente la bóveda se apoya sobre pechinas decoradas con el anagrama de María entre dos palmas. En el exterior de la bóveda en la fachada veremos un arco de medio punto protegido por pilastras y coronado por pináculos, a través de la reja se divisa el altar interior, que aparece adornado con un cuadro de Nuestra Señora del Valle sobre un retablo barroco. La capilla data del año 1726 y el retablo y la pintura de la Virgen responden a la estética barroca ecijana en torno a la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII.
