Monastery of San Juan de Duero, Medieval monastery in Soria, Spain

The complex features interlaced arches in its cloister, where Romanesque columns support curved structures that intersect to form geometric patterns.

The Order of the Knights Hospitaller of Jerusalem founded this monastery in the 12th century near the Duero River crossing point.

The monastery combines Romanesque and Mudejar architectural elements, displaying the coexistence of Christian and Islamic design principles in medieval Spain.

The monastery opens from Tuesday to Saturday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM during winter months, with modified schedules during summer.

Each column capital in the cloister presents different decorative motifs, representing medieval craftsmanship through stone carvings of plants and mythological figures.
