Hiking

The remains of the Santo Domingo Convent, built between the 14th and 15th centuries, and abandoned since Mendizábal's disentailment in 1834, constitute the oldest part of the Pontevedra Museum. The convent was founded in 1281 and belonged to the Dominican Order.

Hiking

The monastery, founded in 1281, belonged to the Dominican Order. Today, only the head part, consisting of five apses, remains, which is unusual for Galician Gothic. The main part of the church was built in the 17th century.
