The Colegio de San Gregorio is a Isabelline style building located in the city of Valladolid, in Castile and León, Spain, currently housing the Museo Nacional de Escultura museum. It is one of the best examples of the architectonical style known as Isabelline, which is the characteristic architectural style of the Castile during the Catholic Monarchs's reign (late-15th to early-16th centuries).
In particular its coutyard and its facade are remarkable for its refined decoration, elegant proportions and an ostensible symbology of power. It was founded as a teaching institution. Aimed at College of Theology for Dominican friars, it has acquired a doctrinal authority and acted as a spiritual and political hotbed in the Central region of Spain's Renaissance and Baroque.
History
The University of Valladolid was founded in the 13th century during the Alfonso X of Castile the Wise's reign; as in other countries the emergence of college centers was potentiated, then belatedly was created the Colegio de San Gregorio, who performed in parallel or complementarily in relation to university life. In Valladolid the Colegio Mayor Santa Cruz was also created also in late 15th-century.
The creation of the College, under the title of the church's doctor Saint Pope Gregory I, was work of Dominican Alonso de Burgos, Bishop of the diocese of Palencia and the Catholic Monarchs's confessor. Alonso de Burgos conditioned its foundation to obtain from the dominica community of San Pablo a land for building his own funeral chapel, which also serve to students of the College. Such a request was satisfied in 1487: getting the necessary space, which was confirmed by Pope Innocent VIII.
In 1577 due to the beneficence of Spaniard Juan Solano, O.P., former bishop of Cusco, Peru, The College of San Gregorio served as a model for the transformation of the Dominican studium at Santa Maria sopra Minerva in Rome into the College of St. Thomas, forerunner of the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Angelicum.[1]
