Museo San Juan de Dios "Casa de los Pisa"
About

The Museo San Juan de Dios, housed in the historic Casa de los Pisa in Granada, offers an intimate look into the life and legacy of Saint John of God, founder of the Hospitaller Order. This sixteenth‑century mansion, gifted to him in gratitude for his charitable work, preserves the atmosphere of the period with its courtyards, carved ceilings, and family heraldry. Inside, the museum displays devotional art, manuscripts, medical instruments, and personal belongings that illustrate the saint’s mission of compassion and care for the vulnerable. The rooms dedicated to his final days are especially moving, connecting visitors to the human story behind his spiritual influence. Beyond its religious significance, the museum provides a rare glimpse into Granada’s social and cultural history during the transition from the Nasrid era to Christian rule. It remains a quiet, reflective space where heritage, faith, and memory come together in one of the city’s most evocative historic homes.
