Monasterio Inmaculada Concepción, Ayllón

História

The large Renaissance complex was built in the 15th century by a noble family to host the nuns of the Dominican Order. Although many of the monastery's works of art and possessions were lost during the war against France, the nuns remained in residence during that turbulent period. The monastery has two double-storied cloisters; the lower floors are reserved for the nuns, the upper one's house guests. The interior shelters a statue of the Virgin Mary attributed to the school of Alonso Cano (1601-1667), an architect and sculptor who lived and worked in Seville, Granada, Toledo and Madrid.

Alimentos e bebidas

All meals can be supplied on request (the nuns prefer that large groups use the kitchen, but arrangements can be made for meals).

Outras instalações

Towels and linens are supplied in the single and double rooms, not in the dorm. Facilities include a large meeting room (up to 100 seats), smaller meeting rooms, garden, sports grounds, patio and a well-equipped kitchen.
