This was once a women's prison butted up against an early twentieth century church. The area has been completely redeveloped and the only original building is the church itself which has been carefully restored and has a certain grandeur. The rest of the area has an art gallery, cafes, bars and a large outdoor area. It is very popular with students and is now the centre of the Nueva Córdoba area.
