Moguer

The beautiful village of Moguer, located seven kilometres from Palos de la Frontera, encloses an ample catalogue of artistic monuments. Among them stands out the Convent of Santa Clara, founded in the XIV Century by Alfonso Jofre Tenorio.

With magnificent cloisters, Santa Clara gathers in its Church the tombs from the Portocarrero family, altars with Triana tiles from the XVII Century and several interesting pictures and sculptures. In this convent from Moguer, Columbus made a vigil after his first trip to the Indies, to fulfil a vow made during the journey.

The Church of Our Lady of the Granada, with its slender tower which brings to memory the Giralda, in the Convent of San Francisco, are other brilliant examples of the religious architecture of Moguer. Among the secular buildings are the City Hall, of neoclassic style, and the Museum-House of Juan Ramón Jiménez, where a rich legacy of the poet from Moguer and from his wife, Zenobia Camprubí, is preserved.

Among its funds, the museum has a complete collection of the first edition of his poem book Platero and I, and personal effects of the writer and poet, awarded the Nobel Prize of Literature in 1956.
