Built in 1309, this palace encompasses years of tradition, culture and knowledge. With a twisted history, in 1399, it passed into the hands of the Carthusian monks. In 1835 it was privatized, because of the Mendizábal’s confiscation.

Legacy

This palace can be visited as any other palace over Spain’s territory. It has in it: a cloister, which is one of the oldest parts of the current buildings, the Chartusians’ old pharmacy, gardens and the rooms of the Priorial Cell (library, audience room, chapel, bedroom).
