Monastery of San Antonio el Real, Segovia, Gothic monastery in Segovia, Spain.

The Monastery of San Antonio el Real displays Gothic and Renaissance architectural elements with brick construction combining red and white patterns throughout its structure.

King Enrique IV of Castile established this monastery in 1455, converting his recreational palace into a Franciscan convent that Queen Isabella I later designated for women only.

The main chapel features a Mudejar coffered wooden ceiling that incorporates intricate designs influenced by the Nasrid kingdom of Granada's artistic traditions.

The monastery functions as Hotel San Antonio el Real, offering accommodation and event spaces while maintaining its original architectural features and historical elements.

The sacristy ceiling, restored in 2002, combines King Enrique's coat of arms with Franciscan cord motifs, displaying the intersection of royal and religious symbolism.
