Why go
The building’s exterior combines carved Plateresque detail with royal emblems, giving a glimpse of a hospital founded under the Catholic Monarchs. If a university tour is available, its cross-shaped plan, four courtyards and central dome reveal a more ambitious interior. Otherwise the facade makes a focused architectural stop.
What to look for
- The Plateresque windows and royal emblems on the main facade.
- Four courtyards around a central crossing, if a tour is available.
- The dome above the crossing, subject to interior access.
Useful to know
- See the facade while passing the Jardines del Triunfo.
- Confirm a current university tour before traveling specifically for the courtyards.
