This paper tries to compile, gather and update the research done until now about Santa María la Real monastery in the township of Tórtoles de Esgueva, which used to be a Benedictine monastery and now is a place for economic activities. Through a diachronic follow-up, this paper means to explain the historical evolution from a mediaeval monastery to a modern hotel: “El Monasterio Escondido” (the hidden monastery). Today past and present are fused and expressed in the hotel activities settled in the beautiful framework of its proto-gothic architecture. The paper is structured in two big sections: its history, linked together since its monastic foundation until today, and its art through the study of the different rooms and their use.
