Descripción Larga
<p style="text-align: justify;">Founded by Queen <strong>Margrethe of Austria</strong>, wife of <strong>Philip III</strong>, in the 17th century, It is a convent of <strong>Augustine Recollect nuns</strong> that, together with the Monastery of the Descalzas Reales, houses one of the largest art collections in the city. In addition, you can see a reliquary in which the <strong>blood of Saint Pantaleón</strong><u> is supposed to be contained, which is liquefied once a year ;or July 27. At the entrance there is a monument to Lope de Vega, sculpted in 1960.</p>
Destacados
<p style=""text-align: justify;"">The convent was very close to the Alcázar and was linked to it by a passage that went around the current Plaza de Oriente. This proximity meant that state funerals of monarchs and members of the royal family were held during the 17th and 18th centuries.</p> <p style=""text-align: justify;"">The architecture shows the authentic style of the Austrians, after the Royal Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial. Juan Gómez de Mora and Fray Alberto de la Madrid de Dios participated. The interior of the church was decorated by Ventura Rodríguez between 1755 and 1775, in a neoclassical style. The convent preserves the main cloister, the choir and the reliquary, which is a room with rich pieces, made of bronze, coral, ivory and fine woods from Italy, Germany, Spain and the Netherlands, the most important and popular temple, with its carvings by Juan de Mena and Salzillo.</p>
