Huerto de las Monjas

    Information

    At number 7 Calle Sacramento lies the entrance to the Huerto de las Monjas (Nuns' Orchard) (also known as the O'Reilly Palace Garden). After walking down a narrow street lined with modern buildings, you come to this charming garden, which was protected by the high walls of a convent until 1972.

    This corner, which was once used for cultivation by the Cistercian Nuns, evokes the atmosphere of the Madrid cloisters of the Golden Age.
