Opposite Medina Azahara, this late medieval is one of only three Hieronymite monasteries to be conserved in Spain.
The early Gothic style can be admired in its church, its cloister – its crowning glory – in the de profundis room, in the chapter house and in some of the cells.
Residence of important figures such as Isabel la Católica and Philip II, it houses an art collection of great quality. Since it is now the private residence of the Condes Du Chastel y Marqueses del Mérito, visits are restricted to certain areas only.
