🎧 Listen to Introduction
Built at the end of the 16th century, the Monastery of the Escurial is designed in the form of a latticework used for the martyrdom of Saint Lawrence, in a beautiful area of Castile. Its austere architectural style is very different from previous ones and has had a major influence on Spanish architecture for more than half a century. Once the retreat of a mysterious king, it became the most powerful political power center of the time during the last years of the reign of Philip II.
