About
Faits rapides: Sunlight pools on checkerboard marble while slender columns frame a surprising blend of Italian Renaissance courtyards and ornate Mudéjar tilework. You can find Roman sculptures tucked into salons and patios, and orange trees plus a tinkling fountain fill the air with fragrance and gentle sound.
Points forts: In the central patio, orange blossom scent rises as sunlight sketches moving patterns on blue-and-white azulejos and a stone fountain murmurs beneath carved marble steps. Look closely at a small bronze plaque near the grand staircase; it credits the Dukes of Medinaceli for the Roman collection and hints at the private-collection feel that makes wandering the rooms feel like stepping into a lived-in antiquities salon.
Insider tips
- Buy tickets online for a timed entry slot, especially in high season, to skip the ticket queue.
- Head straight to the main patio for photos when you enter, then visit upper rooms as crowds thin.
- Wear comfortable shoes, floors and narrow staircases can be uneven and slippery after rain.
- Avoid lunchtime and mid-afternoon when tour groups arrive, or join an early guided tour for more context.
