Iglesia-convento San Francisco, Gothic monastery in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain

The monastery features Spanish Gothic architectural elements with high vaulted ceilings, stone arches, and detailed sculptural decorations throughout its structure.

Construction of the monastery began in 1771 and continued until 1787, during a period of religious expansion in the Andalusia region.

The monastery maintains its function as a religious center under the Roman Catholic Diocese of Jerez de la Frontera, hosting regular services and ceremonies.

Visitors can access the monastery during designated hours, with guided tours available to explore the main chapel, cloisters, and religious artifacts.

The interior houses choir stalls originally created for the Convento-Iglesia de la Merced in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, transferred here in 1960.
