Este convento se encuentra en uno de los laterales de la [poi=88765]Plaza de las Mercedes[/poi], ya que tiene anexionada la Capilla de las Mercedes. Está habitado por monjas de clausura y era también Colegio. Fue mandado reedificar por el obispo Diego de Ros Medrano en el siglo XVII, encargándole el proyecto al arquitecto Pedro de Arén; cuando falleció este obispo dejó todas sus alhajas a este Colegio. Toda la fachada es de piedra. La capilla es pequeña, de una sola nave y está rematada en una curiosa espadaña de tres arcos. En esta capilla hay misa los días festivos a las 10 de la mañana.
This convent is on one side of the Plaza de las Mercedes, as it has annexed the Chapel of Mercy. It is inhabited by nuns and was also College. He was sent to rebuild by Bishop Diego de Ros Medrano in the seventeenth century, entrusting the project to the architect Pedro de Aren; when the bishop died he left all his goods to the College. The entire facade is made of stone. The chapel is small, with a single nave and is finished in a curious belfry of three arches. In this chapel there is mass public holidays at 10 am.
