Casbas de Huesca, Aragón, Spain
Monasterio de Nuestra Señora de la Gloria (Monasterio de Casbas)
A complete Cistercian nunnery founded in 1173 by Countess Oria de Pallars, with a Romanesque church doorway, a 15th-century cloister, chapter house and choir stalls of 1515-1520. It was declared a National Monument in 1979; the last nuns left in 2004.
The whole complex, about 10,000 square meters on a three-hectare plot, is on the market with planning approval for a hotel of about 40 rooms. The owners, six partners who bought it in 2021 from the liquidation of a foundation, could not agree on the project; a buyer could instead keep it as a sacred or cultural place.
Before you act. The agent's listing is live but shows no price; the €3.5 million figure is from April 2025 and may have changed. The agent describes the structure as very good, so this is a purchase, not a rescue from ruin.

The walled complex is for sale: 3,782 square meters of buildings with 40 rooms on an 18,723 square meter plot, described by the agent as in good general condition. Without a buyer who values it as a monastery it is being marketed for hotel, residential or events use.

About 200 timber ceiling beams in the first floor of the cloister are failing from age, damp and wood-boring insects; many must be replaced and the rest treated. The 'Apadrina una viga' (sponsor a beam) appeal prices each beam at 300 euros.
