Ruins of Santo Domingo Convent
Ruins of Santo Domingo Convent, Gothic convent ruins in Pontevedra, Spain.
The Ruins of Santo Domingo Convent feature five polygonal chapels and remnants of the south wall, displaying traditional Gothic architectural elements throughout the structure.
Founded in 1281 by Dominican monks, the convent underwent multiple transformations until its partial demolition in the 1870s and final protection as a National Monument in 1895.
The site now functions as part of the Pontevedra Museum, preserving architectural elements that represent the religious and social evolution of medieval Galicia.

The preserved apse section contains intricate stone carvings and structural elements from various periods, including both Gothic and Neoclassical architectural influences.
