What are the relative pronouns in Spanish

Relative pronouns, like pronouns that are, replace a name within the sentence. In this case, they are pronouns that unite the main sentence with a subordinate one and within the latter are used not to repeat the noun (not always the noun functions as such) of the main sentence. Example: "The shirt that Ana left me is very beautiful". That "that" is equivalent to "the shirt" and is a way of not repeating. Do you know what are the relative pronouns in Spanish ?
