The Hospital of Tavera

The Hospital of Tavera, also known as the Hospital of Saint John Baptist, Hospital of outside, or simply as Hospital Tavera, is an important Building of Renaissance style. It was built between 1541 and 1603 by order of the Cardinal Tavera. Initially it began to be constructed under the supervision of Alonso de Covarrubias, being succeeded by other architects and finishing the work Bartolomé Bustamante.

The remoteness with the old part of the city made it known as “hospital of outside”, since within the walls there already existed the Hospital of Saint Cross.
