It was originally founded at the beginning of the 16th century in the old neighbourhood of La Villa, but due to its small size and poor conditions it was moved to its current location, called La Concepción. As the image of Nuestra Sra. de Gracia was older and was also donated by the Catholic Monarchs, the name of the convent was changed to the one we know today.
The current church was built in 1555, and its most interesting artistic features are the rectangular cloister, surrounded by a two-storey gallery of semicircular arches, and its Baroque church (late Baroque style with Rococo ornamentation), built in the 18th century.
