About University of Alcalá

The University of Alcalá, also known as Complutense University or Cisnerian University, was a university located in Alcalá de Henares, Spain, from its founding by Cardinal Cisneros in 1499 until its relocation to Madrid in 1836. During the 16th and 17th centuries, it became a major center of academic excellence. In 1777, it was physically and administratively separated from its Colegio Mayor de San Ildefonso and renamed the Royal University of Alcalá, with its headquarters moved to the former building of the Faculty of Law. In 1836, the university was merged with the teachings of the Royal Studies of San Isidro and the Royal Museum of Natural Sciences in Madrid to form the Central University of Madrid, which later became the modern Complutense University of Madrid.
