    Its construction, from the 12th century, was ordered by Sancha de Castilla for the hospital sisters. Therefore, even though it was a double monastery (with a part for nuns and another for friars), the highest authority was always in the hands of the nuns, who at various times were women linked to royalty or the Aragonese nobility.
