The Augustinian Convent is the most important monument in the municipality of Huécija, in the province of Almería (Andalusia, Spain), and one of the best examples of Baroque architecture in the province of Almería.

Its architectural features make it one of the best examples of Baroque architecture in the province of Almería, which is also evident in its ornamentation, which is especially abundant in the transept and the dome, with a wide repertoire of polychrome stuccoes and motifs. painted. The portals, one at the entrance next to the tower and one on the right side overlooking the square, are made of wood, and in the first one the nails stand out, whose heads are heart-shaped.

This building was founded in 1511 by Teresa Enríquez, wife of Gutiérre de Cárdenas, to educate the Moors who populated these lands in Christian doctrine.
