Convento de Nuestra Señora del Rosario y Santo Domingo

A centuries-old convent in Cádiz cloaked in bright tiles

The Convento de Nuestra Señora del Rosario y Santo Domingo, Cádiz's vibrant rooftop chapel, stands as a Bien de Interés Cultural since 2005. Its tiles, added in the 19th century, are a patchwork of blue, red, and yellow, handcrafted by the convents' tailors, tracing the convent's history as an architectural and cultural landmark. Their exact addition year remains unsure.
