Capilla de Afuera (Outer Chapel)

1.- ENTRANCE GATEWAY AND CAPILLA DE AFUERA (OUTER CHAPEL)  ··  1 | 2  ··

The architect Ambrosio de Figueroa (18th century) was involved in the reconstruction of several parts of the building, including the entrance, designed as a triumphal arch, and the single volume chapel with its simple lines and its outstanding dome. This chapel and the adjoining spaces were intended as a place where people from outside could meet the monks, who were not neglectful of the needy coming to them.
