Lonely Planet review for Conjunto Monumental de la Cartuja
Founded in 1399, the Conjunto Monumental de la Cartuja became the favourite sevillano lodging place for Columbus, King Felipe II and other luminaries. In 1839 the complex was bought by a Liverpudlian, Charles Pickman, who turned it into a porcelain factory, building the tall bottle-shaped kilns that stand incongruously beside the monastery buildings.
