"Gothic Convent"
This monastery and adjoining convent were founded in 1327 by Queen Elisenda of Montcada to house the nuns of the Order of Saint Clare. Now, the site serves as a museum, giving visitors a peek at the important Gothic landmark. The property is quite lovely, featuring a courtyard, garden, and Renaissance-style fountain. Everything has been carefully maintained and restored, included the dining hall, kitchen, infirmary, and cells once belonging to the resident nuns. Visitors will find some of the religious paintings belonging to the Thyssen-Bornemisza collection in one of the rooms, giving the experience an artistic bent on top of its cultural appeal.
