Alcalá de Henares

It was the church of the old monastery of San Juan de la Penitencia, founded by Cardinal Cisneros in 1504. It was named "Casa de la Entrevista" because it was the site of the first meeting between Christopher Columbus and Queen Isabella in the nearby Archbishop's Palace. It is currently an exhibition room owned by the City Council.
