Hospital Real
The Catholic Monarchs ordered to erect this imposing Gothic building with classical features. It is the seat of the University vice-chancellor’s office and the Central Library. It is located among the streets Real de Cartuja, Ancha de Capuchinos and Avenida del Hospicio where the entrance is sited. During the Moorish times there was a cemetery on this place (Saad Malik) and after the Christian conquest this land was granted to the city as “ejido” (common land).
