ALMAGRO was the head of the military order of Calatrava. The Fugers, German bankers summoned by Charles V, settled in the town. These two factors led to AImagro's expansion. From the sixteenth to the nineteenth centuries the town had a university. In terms of monuments, the most interesting feature is the asymmetrical Plaza Mayor, with a portico of Tuscan columns and glazing on the two upper storeys. The square is home to the Palacio Maestral and the Corral de Comedias, from the sixteenth century and where the international theatre festival is held each year. The Museo del Teatro has interesting collections related to this artistic field. The Asuncion convent, with its Gothic church and Renaissance courtyard, the Santo Domingo church and convent, and the Jesuitas church add to the town's historical and artistic monuments.
