Abstract
This article analyses the convent of San Salvador de Pinilla (Guadalajara) on the basis of the visitations carried out in 1546, 1552 and 1566, combined with the study of the surviving architectural remains. It reconstructs the spatial organisation and functions of the church, the cloistered area and the secular sector, distinguishing between the medieval fabric and the sixteenth-century reforms. The study highlights the survival of a late Romanesque architecture of Cistercian affiliation and relates the architectural transformations to the convent’s economic precariousness, sanitary problems and gradual institutional decline.
Keywords: Medieval convent; Order of Calatrava; monastic architecture; visitations.
