The Carthusian monastery Monasterio de la Cartuja in Granada, called "La Cartuja" there, is considered one of the most important baroque buildings in Spain. It was built in 1507 by Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba y Aguilar - known as Gran Capitán for short. What began in 1506 only came to completion in the 18th century: although the original building plans were not even realised, but a large number of different architectural styles were integrated.
