Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: "The Convent of La Rabida, Spain", [Reconstruction / replica for the] World's Columbian Exposition of 1893 [located between the Anthropology Building and the Casino Pier]. The Monastery of La Rabida at Palos, in Spain, is where Columbus applied for food and shelter for himself and child after the Spanish court had refused to outfit him for
his voyage of discovery. " Here," says an able authority, " he found an asylum while developing his theories, and it was through the intercession of the prior of this monastery that Queen Isabella consented to reconsider her refusal to furnish ships and money for the voyage. It was here, too, that Columbus remained while preparing his little fleet for the memorable expedition. |
