Convento del Espíritu Santo, Religious convent and church building in El Puerto de Santa María, Spain.

The Convento del Espíritu Santo features a single-nave church with four sections and houses various altarpieces, sculptures, and paintings from different periods.

Founded in the late 15th century on the site of the former San Blas Hermitage, the convent suffered damage from Anglo-Dutch troops in 1702 and an earthquake in 1755.

The nuns of Espíritu Santo follow the rule of Guido de Montpellier and maintain traditions through religious ceremonies and community gatherings throughout the year.

The convent maintains an educational center and produces confectionery products, while offering guided tours to visitors interested in its historical and architectural elements.

The building complex incorporates remains of an ancient hospital and hermitage, representing centuries of architectural evolution in religious structures of Andalusia.
