Opposite the impressive Medina Azahara, also sheltered by the Sierra de Córdoba and surrounded by native vegetation, is the Monastery of San Jerónimo de Valparaíso, an imposing 15th-century building.

It can be reached from the Trassierra gas station along a silk road and then a fairly steep descending track or climb from the ruins of Medina Azahara along a fairly steep track.

The Royal Monastery of San Jerónimo de Valparaíso is an old monastery in the municipality of Córdoba that is framed in Sierra Morena, near Medina Azahara. Founded in 1405, it is considered the first work of Cordovan Gothic, being a monastery until its exclaustration in 1835.
