title: [The Guadalupe's Monastery and the teaching of medicine].
abstract: The Monastery of Guadalupe was an important medical science teaching center from late Middle Ages until 1835, as a result of the high qualification of its professionals, its excellent facilities and perfect organization. Subsequently, we analyze the origin of the monastery and its government, the hospitals it held, its organization and functioning, and medical practice. We conclude with selected thoughts about the consideration of the Monastery as a School of Medicine, and a mention of some outstanding caregivers.
