"Convent founded in 1520 by the widow of the secretary of the Catholic Monarchs. Inside it houses a small Moorish house from the 14th century in which the patio decorated with Nasrid motifs and the pool located in the center stand out. Of great interest is its Renaissance portal with the sculpture of the saint and the family coats of arms.

The nuns of the convent make sweets and confectionery of excellent quality, which can be bought through the lathe."
