A Benedictine monastery founded in 1011, whose church was begun in the late 12th century and remodelled in the 15th. Of these years are the cloister by Simón de Colonia, with the ground floor of the 16th century and the upper one of the 17th, and the Renaissance and Baroque façade of the monastery, of the 17th century. The Jesuits occupied it from 1880, and in 1967 the provincial council made it a psychiatric hospital.
