Monastery of Santa Cruz la Real, Segovia, Dominican convent in Segovia, Spain
The monastery features a Gothic Hispanic-Flemish church doorway with a single nave and an ogive vaulted ceiling that extends throughout the structure.
Saint Dominic de Guzman established this monastery in 1218, making it the first Dominican community of friars in Spain during the medieval period.
The monastery houses wooden sculptures depicting Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand at prayer, reflecting the strong connection between Spanish monarchy and religious institutions.
The former religious complex now serves as the main campus of IE University, located at Calle Cardenal Zuniga 12 in central Segovia.
The Santo Domingo cave within the monastery complex contains a decorated entrance and ogive vaulted roof system dating from the Catholic Monarchs period.
