Convent of San Antonio el Real, Salamanca

The Convent of San Antonio el Real displays architectural elements from the 18th century, including an octagonal drum reinforced with ashlar at the corners.

The construction of the convent began in 1732 when King Philip V granted permission to establish a hospice for elderly friars near Plaza Mayor.

The convent ruins now integrate with the Teatro Liceo, preserving elements of the 19th-century hall while maintaining its status as a cultural heritage site.

Located at Plaza del Liceo, the site maintains regular visiting hours from Monday to Saturday between 10:00 AM and 9:00 PM with wheelchair accessibility.

The building combines religious architecture with modern retail space, housing a Zara store while maintaining visible walls and dome from the original church.
