Description

The Convento de las Dueñas was founded in 1419 as a convent for Dominican nuns.It is an interesting example of Mudejar (Moorish-Christian) architecture.One of the highlights of the convent is the two-story Renaissance cloister, with capitals depicting fearsome beasts and human figures that seem inspired by Dante's Divine Comedy.
