About Iglesia De San Jerónimo El Real (Los Jeronimos) in Madrid:
San Jerónimo – the Royal, popularly known as Los Jerónimos, was one of the most important monasteries in Madrid. The early building consists of the church and a cloister located behind the Prado Museum. The cloister suffered a progressive deterioration throughout the 19th century and after an agreement with the ecclesiastical authorities, it was recovered and incorporated into the Museo del Prado as part of the extension designed by the architect Rafael Moneo.
The cloister is popularly known as Moneo’s Cube due to its exterior.
The monastery was expanded during the reign of Philip IV, King of Spain, who ruled from 1621 to his death in 1625.
