This Cistercian monastery, founded in 1140 by Alfonso VII of Castile, was the first in the entire Iberian Peninsula, allowing the Cistercian order to spread throughout the different Christian kingdoms of the peninsula. It preserves its cloister, refectory, a beautiful chapter house under Romanesque arches, a palace and the church of Santa María la Real with its remarkable vaults. A true jewel of Cistercian art with Arab and Christian influences.
