Palacio de Monterre

A Plateresque Palace that was begun in 1539, commissioned by the Count of Monterrey D. Alonso de Acevedo y Zúñiga. The initial project was much larger, with four-towered wings, but a lack of cash flow forced the builders to scale it back to what you can see today. The building has three floors. One of the few privately owned palaces, belonging to the House of Alba.
