It was a building that granted hospitality a shelter for priests and students.
On the portal's architrave, there is an Ulloa family crest, as the Knights’ Hospital was founded by D. Diego García de Ulloa “El Rico,” one of the most influential figures of the city at that time, since he was the Head of the Council then, and later became the promoter of the Monastery of Saint Francis.
Recommendations: Its façade is in the Gothic style with alternating masonry and ashlar stones.
