URL routing in PHP (MVC)

I am building a custom MVC project and I have a base folder /mvc that contains .htaccess and routes.php files and that is placed in C:\xampp\htdocs root folder. Here are my files:

C:\xampp\htdocs\mvc\.htaccess

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*\.png$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*\.jpg$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*\.css$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*\.gif$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !.*\.js$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^((?!routes\.php).+)$ /mvc/routes.php [L]

</IfModule>

C:\xampp\htdocs\mvc\routes.php

<?php
# Routing logic goes here...

Problem

I'd like to move routes.php into mvc/app folder, hence I changed this line in .htaccess

RewriteRule ^((?!routes\.php).+)$ /mvc/routes.php [L]

to this line:

RewriteRule ^((?!routes\.php).+)$ /mvc/app/routes.php [L]

But that does not seem to work! I get a 500 error. What am I doing here? I'd like to redirect ALL requests (including any .php or other file requests, excluding images) to mvc/app/routes.php, which will handle the HTTP requests and direct them to the appropriate controllers.

Try with:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !\.(png|jpg|css|gif|js)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^((?!app/routes\.php).+)$ /mvc/app/routes.php [L]
</IfModule>
