m1.jpgOne of Spain’s most beautiful palaces, it’s a brilliant example of rococo architecture with a wonderful Churrigueresque façade that looks like running water. The imposing alabaster main entrance was designed by Hipólito Rovira and sculpted by Ignacio Vergara. The original building dates from the 16th century although it was completely renovated during the 18th. Have a look at the luxurious ballroom inside and visit the fabulous Ceramics Museum.
