Google Reviews
Magnífico edificio en el que se sincretiza estructura de estilo renacentista en el patio porticado junto a decoración de tendencia plateresca. Lo encargó el cardenal Mendoza para que funcionara como hospital dentro decoración las nuevas ideas humanistas de higiene y estética del ordenamiento urbano del renacimiento. Merece la pena la visita que, además, se puede completar con las diferentes exposiciones que se alojan en ella. Mención especial a la Anunciación del Greco
Museo Arqueologíco. Antiguo hospital de Santa Cruz. Su principal atractivo es la colección de pinturas del Greco. Entre ellos se encuentra La Inmaculada Concepción, y La Verónica de la Faz de Cristo. Es considerado uno de los mejores museos se España.
