We find ourselves in an environment that blends in perfectly with Punta de Santa Anna, which marks the beginning of the Costa Brava.<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: left;\">The Convent is located 70 km from Barcelona and is open to the Mediterranean Sea, surrounded by the scents of aromatic plants and the pine trees of the gardens. From here you can enjoy a bird\u2019s-eye view of the coastline, as the sky meets the sea.<br \/>\nThe Convent is a unique and privileged place to organise weddings, banquets, private celebrations, meetings and corporate events, as well as an exclusive location for film productions.<\/h5>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: left;\">The \u201cConvent Classical Music Festival\u201d, which coincides with the

In 1477, a 18 year old calledwas Anna inherited the assets of the Cabrera family. She had many suitors, but married Admiral of Castile Fadric Enr\u00edquez, cousin of King Ferdinand the Catholic. In 1481, the Catalan lands were returned, with the exception of Blanes, which was restored in 1488. It is believed that the Viscountess Anna built a chapel and dedicated it to Santa Anna as a token of gratitude for this territorial recovery. In 1582, the little chapel was transformed into the place where the first convent stood, which was colloquially called \u201cCapuchin convent,\u201d and welcomed the monks of this order, along with Father Arc\u00e1ngel de Alarc\u00f3n, cousin of Queen Joan\u2019s butler.<\/p>\n<p>In 1626, they realised so many religious people could not live in such a small building, and they began to modify the convent and the church. The works ended in the following years. In 1835, King Ferdinand VII died and the Civil War broke out. In 1845, under the Mendiz\u00e1bal law, the building that was the Capuchin convent, the church, the chamber of the waiters and the vegetable gardens, representing a total area of 31,500 square feet, went on auction.<br \/>\n[\/vc_column_text]\n\t\t\t    <\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; el_id=&#8221;libro&#8221;][vc_column]<section class=\"page-title page-title-3 bg-dark\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t    <div class=\"row\">\n\t\t\t\t    \n\t\t\t\t        <div class=\"col-sm-12 text-center\">\n\t\t\t\t            <h3 class=\"uppercase mb0\">\n\t\t\t\t            \t Golden book\n\t\t\t\t            <\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t        <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t    <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<ol class=\"breadcrumb breadcrumb-2\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/elconventblanes.com\/en\/\" class=\"home-link\" rel=\"home\">Home<\/a><\/li><li class=\"active\">El Convent<\/li><\/ol>\n\t\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221;][vc_column]\n\t\t\t<section class=\"image-square right\">\n\t\t\t    <div class=\"col-md-6 image\">\n\t\t\t        <div class=\"background-image-holder\">\n\t\t\t            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/elconventblanes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/bodas-casaments-costabrava-gastronomia-jubany.jpg\" class=\"background-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/elconventblanes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/bodas-casaments-costabrava-gastronomia-jubany.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/elconventblanes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/bodas-casaments-costabrava-gastronomia-jubany-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/elconventblanes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/bodas-casaments-costabrava-gastronomia-jubany-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/elconventblanes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/bodas-casaments-costabrava-gastronomia-jubany-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/elconventblanes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/bodas-casaments-costabrava-gastronomia-jubany-60x60.jpg 60w, https:\/\/elconventblanes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/bodas-casaments-costabrava-gastronomia-jubany-500x500.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\n\t\t\t        <\/div>\n\t\t\t    <\/div>\n\t\t\t    <div class=\"col-md-6 content\">\n\t\t\t        [vc_column_text]The Golden Book of the Convent of Blanes is a historical book that has its first entry on April 24, 1940.
