Noviciado de las Damas Apostólicas del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús

Noviciado de las Damas Apostólicas del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús, Religious architectural ensemble in Chamartín, Madrid, Spain.

The Noviciado de las Damas Apostólicas del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús is a Neo-Mudéjar complex of two buildings at Paseo de La Habana 198, set in the centre of a 16,848 m² block in Chamartín. Críspulo Moro Cabeza signed the project in October 1928; during construction the arcades and ground-floor windows were given segmental arches, the upper balustrade was replaced by a deep Mudéjar-style eave, and the church front lost its pediment and twin bell gables for a horizontal finish with two pinnacles.

In 1928 the architect Críspulo Moro Cabeza received the commission for a new novitiate on land in Chamartín de la Rosa acquired by the Patronato de Enfermos y Preservación de la Fe, founded by Luz Casanova. The project, signed in October 1928, was modified during construction: lowered arches were added to the arcades and ground-floor windows, and the upper balustrade was replaced by a Mudéjar-style eave. Works began in late 1928, and the complex was partially demolished in 2017.

The complex reflects how architects of its era drew inspiration from medieval Spanish forms to create a distinctive national style visible across Madrid. The choice of Neo-Mudéjar design shows the importance placed on reconnecting with Spain's architectural past during that period.

The site is a private religious building, so access may be restricted to the exterior and surroundings. The best way to view this ensemble is to observe the brick facades and architectural details from the street, where you can see the full effect of its design.

The 1928 project signed by Críspulo Moro Cabeza differed from what was built: the upper balustrade was replaced by a complex Mudéjar-style eave, and the church facade lost its pediment and two small bell gables in favour of a horizontal finish with two pinnacles.
