The Piarist school on the calle de Hortaleza, beside the church of San Antón that Pedro de Ribera built in 1740; Francisco Rivas built the school and the convent between 1794 and 1832. In the war it was a prison from which prisoners were taken out to be shot in 1936. Only the school's façade was kept; restored, since 2011 it has been the seat and museum of the Madrid College of Architects.
