Reials Col·legis de Tortosa, Renaissance monument complex in Tortosa, Spain.

The Royal Colleges consist of three buildings: Sant Jaume i Sant Maties College, Sant Jordi i Sant Domènec College, and Sant Domènec Church in Tortosa.

Built in 1564, the Sant Jaume i Sant Maties College initially served as an educational institution for young Muslim converts in sixteenth-century Catalonia.

The central courtyard displays sculptural decorations featuring busts and crests of the royal couples from the Crown of Aragon.

The complex opens its doors at Carrer de Sant Domènec 12-23, offering guided tours through the Renaissance architecture and permanent exhibitions.

The courtyard of Sant Jaume i Sant Maties represents the only Renaissance patio in Catalonia, incorporating religious and scientific elements in its design.
