Seminario de San Felipe Neri

Andalucía


Plaza de Santa María is the most characteristic of Baeza's squares and was designed to be a focus of religious and civic life. On its north side stands the 17th-century Seminario de San Felipe Neri, a former seminary that now houses part of the Baeza campus of the Universidad Internacional de Andalucía, which runs postgraduate courses in a variety of disciplines.

Visitors can look into the main courtyard.
