The Monasterio de Santa María de la Rábida is a Franciscan friary in Palos de la Frontera, in the province of Huelva, Spain, about 13 km south of Huelva where the Tinto and Odiel rivers meet. Its buildings were erected in stages in the late fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries, combining Gothic and Moorish revival elements, with frescos by Daniel Vázquez Díaz. Christopher Columbus stayed there before his first voyage, and it is a bien de interés cultural.
