Ruins of what was a monastery of the Order of San Jerónimo dating from the 15th century. Although you can only go around it from the outside, it is beautiful to visit since it gives rise to the imagination of what this sanctuary would have been.

The Monastery of Santa María de la Armedilla was a monastery of the Order of San Jerónimo, today in ruins, located about 3.8 kilometers from Cogeces del Monte. The monastery was founded after the chance discovery by shepherds of an image of the Virgin Mary in a cave excavated in the rock. This gave rise to a Marian cult in the place and the construction of the monastery. The proximity of quarries and plasterworks in the area facilitated its construction, as well as the water supply. 🏰🌿
