Convento Monasterio de San Julian y San Antonio.

Convento Monasterio de San Julian y San Antonio.
Monastery with superb granite backdrop.
Sierra de La Cabrera, Madrid province.
One from the past. Not sure if it was posted previously on Ipernity; definitely was on Panoramio in 2011.

One must do a second look to see the building, perfectly hidden in a rocky landscape.

Andy Rodker club has replied to volker_hmbg club
It's a religious instition of some kind now, Volker but not exactly a monastery or a convent.
In fact for much of the 19th century it was the Goya family home!

Well protected in this rugged and wildly beautiful landscape Andy.
Well captured. Fascinating that it was the Goya family home.

I read that somewhere, Carol but not sure for how long and who exactly and why it had been de-commissioned as a religious house!

March 2021...........this is what I said at the time:

"Well composed with a beautiful blue sky..........I love the detail and textures in the foreground. The monastery is well hidden amongst the trees."

I have no reason to change that............it's always good to see one of your splendid photos again Andy :-)

Andy Rodker club has replied to Keith Burton club
Oh well, so i have posted it relatively recently - March last year - just before I was whisked off to hospital with covid! That's probably why I had forgotten! Another explanation is that I was too lazy to check, as you just did!!!
Many thanks, Keith!

No problem. I enjoyed looking at it again!

Andy Rodker club has replied to Keith Burton club
The slightly worrying thing is, Keith that it's the sort of thing I'm doing more and more often!

Forgetfulness..............I can relate to that Andy!

Many thanks, Rashid!
I have plans (not fixed yet) to maybe go there a couple of times this autumn just to test the water so to speak, but the objective really is to get up there again for the spring wildflower show and that means the last two weeks in May and the first week in June!
