A convent founded in 1673 by Juana González Lozana for Franciscan nuns, who lived in it until 1979. In a plain, whitewashed popular Baroque, it keeps its stone lintelled doorway, the church with three Baroque altarpieces (the main one from the second half of the 17th century), the cloister, the chapter house and the refectory. The town council took it over in 1985, it was restored in the late 1990s and it now runs as a hostel.
