Convento de la Encarnación, Cistercian monastery in Córdoba, Spain.
The building features a church with a single nave, covered by a barrel vault, and multiple courtyards forming an enclosed structure.
The monastery originated from a beaterio established in 1503 through the testament of Canon Antón Ruiz de Morales for his niece Juana González.
The monastery contains religious artworks, including a figure of Baby Jesus discovered in the river in 1701 and donated to the community.
The monastery entrance incorporates a portal designed by architect Hernán Ruiz III, leading visitors into the main courtyard area.
The structure includes a large rear cloister with two floors featuring pilastered semicircular arches on both levels.
