Monasterio de San Pedro el Real, Baroque church building in central Córdoba, Spain.

The Monasterio de San Pedro el Real features three naves supported by pillars with Mudéjar coffered decorations and circular internal apses.

The monastery originated as a Franciscan convent established after Córdoba's surrender to Christian troops under King Fernando III in 1236.

The structure maintains elements of various architectural influences, including Baroque marble decorations from 1708 and Gothic-Mudéjar doorways within its walls.

The monastery remains partly accessible through its church building and cloister section, which connects to the Ministry of Culture on Capitulares Street.

Materials from the original convent were repurposed during the 19th century to construct the Café del Gran Capitán and provide marble for a house in Écija.
