It is a convent of the Dominican Order. Its construction was carried out between the 16th and 17th centuries. It is in the Gothic style, but its decoration is Plateresque and Baroque. The church has a Latin cross plan, with a single nave, in whose interior its baroque altarpiece stands out, with Solomonic columns, the work of José de Churriguera. The main canvas depicts the scene of the martyrdom of Saint Stephen, the work of Claudio Coello. The building has three cloisters, the most interesting being that of the Kings.
