Convento de Santa Clara la Real, Toledo, Mudéjar convent in Toledo, Spain
The Convento de Santa Clara la Real features a grand entrance door leading to two main courtyards: the patio of orange trees and patio of laurels.
María Meléndez, a noblewoman from Toledo, established the convent in 1368 after receiving papal authorization from Gregory XI through an official bull.
The convent preserves numerous artworks within its walls, including paintings by Luis Tristán and sculptures that reflect centuries of Spanish religious heritage.
Visitors can explore the convent on Saturdays between 10:30 AM to 2 PM and 4 PM to 6:30 PM, with group visits available by appointment.
The remains of two royal Castilian figures, Abbesses Inés and Isabel Enríquez, daughters of King Henry II, rest in the convent's choir.
