Capilla de la Cuadra de San Isidro, Gothic Revival chapel in Las Letras district, Spain.

The rectangular chapel features a lowered vault ceiling and contains a neoclassical altarpiece displaying significant images of Saint Isidro Labrador.

Built in 1859 within the former residence of the Marquis of Villanueva de la Sagra, the chapel stands where the original 17th-century structure once existed.

The chapel houses four paintings by Manuel Castellano depicting scenes from Saint Isidro's life, along with a Maumejean stained glass window.

The chapel opens its doors on May 15th during the Saint Isidro festivities, while remaining closed to the public most of the year.

Local tradition maintains this space served as the stable where Saint Isidro kept his oxen and rested during his agricultural work.
