Monastery of San Jeronimo

The Monastery of San Jerónimo is a striking example of Spanish Renaissance architecture and a key site in Granada’s post-Reconquista history. Built in the early 16th century, the monastery served both religious and symbolic purposes, reflecting the power of the Catholic Monarchs. Pupils will explore its richly decorated church, cloisters, and chapels, and gain a deeper understanding of religious life, art, and architecture in early modern Spain.

This visit offers pupils a chance to study the artistic and historical significance of monastic life during a pivotal era in Spanish history.
