CASA DE CISNEROS

Your browser doesn't support HTML5 audio

Casa de Cisneros dating back to the 1500s, is famous for having been turned... backwards; in fact, the facade that you see now was once the back! But in the late nineteenth century a whimsical architect "turned the tables", connecting it to Casa de la Villa with a suspended arch. Don't forget to go along Calle Sacramento to admire the lovely original façade in a very ornate style, similar to decorated silverware and called "Plateresque".
