Cuartel del Carmen, Former convent and barracks in Old Town, Seville, Spain.
The Cuartel del Carmen consists of multiple wings and courtyards, reflecting both religious and military architectural elements throughout its structure.
Founded as a Carmelite convent in 1358, the building was converted into military barracks during the French invasion of 1810 when the monks were expelled.
The building houses the Superior Conservatory of Music and School of Dramatic Arts since 2002, contributing to Seville's educational landscape.
The structure stands at the intersection of historical and modern Seville, accessible through the narrow streets of the Old Town district.
The building underwent a complete transformation from religious to military use, and finally to an educational institution over its 600-year existence.
