Convento de las Adoratrices

This convent is located in the upper area of ​​Badajoz, in the historical center, just opposite the Alcazaba and Casas Mudejares. It was built in the early twentieth century on the remains of a thirteenth-century chapel dedicated to St. Joseph (patron of the city), and inside you can see graves of famous people. The current building has a single nave, and is inhabited by nuns from the "Madres Adoratrices Esclavas del Santismo y de la Caridad" order. It is one of the four monasteries or convents remaining in Badajoz, of the sixteen that the city once had.
