Museo del Convento de Santa Clara de Zafra

The Museo del Convento de Santa Clara occupies sections of a monastery, featuring exhibits across four thematic areas about convent life and nobility.

The monastery was established in 1428 by Gómez I Suárez de Figueroa as a burial site for his family under the patronage of Virgin del Valle.

The museum displays religious artifacts, including a Gothic altar from the 15th century and Italian artworks from the 17th century in its collection.

The museum operates Tuesday through Sunday with different seasonal hours, offering guided tours and maintaining closure during major Spanish holidays.

The exhibition includes a calcographic engraving of Inmaculada Concepción created by Cornelis Galle el Viejo during the first half of the 17th century.
