Monasterio de los Jerónimos de San Pedro de la Ñora, Baroque monastery in Guadalupe, Murcia, Spain

The Monasterio de los Jerónimos features two bell towers crowned with glazed tile domes and a Latin cross layout in its church structure.

Construction of the monastery started in 1702 under friar Antonio de San José's direction and concluded with its inauguration on February 1, 1738.

The monastery's interior displays intricate Baroque decorations, including vaulted ceilings and stucco capitals, along with sculptures by Francisco Salzillo.

The monastery currently houses the Catholic University of San Antonio of Murcia, following its transfer from the Diocese of Cartagena in 1996.

The monastery relocated from its original site due to continuous flooding by the Segura River, moving to its current elevated position after the 1648 flood.
