The Poor Clares convent that in 1365 received from Peter I the Cruel the rooms of the Alcázar Menor, the 13th-century Andalusi palace. In the 17th century Melchor de Luzón built the present Baroque church, keeping only the upper choir of the Gothic one, and in the 18th it was redecorated in Rococo. The Museo de Santa Clara now lets visitors see the remains of the Islamic palaces and the cloister.
