This 16th-century palace "casa palacio" is located in the historic town of Almagro, declared a Historic-Artistic Site and home to the International Festival of Classical Theater, in the region of Castilla-La Mancha. The property is linked to the influential Fugger (Fúcares) banking family, who had two major branches in Spain - one in Madrid and one in Almagro - serving Emperor Charles V.
The main façade features a magnificent Renaissance portal bearing the coat of arms of Juan de Juren, the Fúcares' local agent. Historians and experts regard this entrance, due to its artistic quality and iconography, as one of the finest Renaissance examples in Castilla-La Mancha.
The total built area is 1,459 m² (according to the land registry), including 1,066 m² of living space on two floors (ground and first) and around 500 m² of patios and galleries.
A stunning central courtyard of 150 m² includes stone columns with the Fúcares family crest and carved wooden corbels featuring double fleur-de-lis motifs.
The property offers 16 spacious rooms, most with exterior balconies or windows. Several feature traditional coffered ceilings. Additional interior spaces include bathrooms, service quarters, kitchens, and pantries. There are fireplaces throughout. A 200 m² storeroom/granary includes a unique wooden truss system. The property also features a well, cellar, basement, wooden main staircase, secondary service staircase, and original flooring in terracotta, ceramic, and hydraulic tiles. Service areas have vaulted ceilings with exposed wooden beams.
Beyond the central courtyard, the home includes a secondary service patio and a large rear garden of 250 m² with a separate carriage entrance - perfect for installing a pool, gazebo, outdoor event space, or parking.
Well maintained and in good general condition.
An excellent opportunity for use as a public institution, cultural venue, corporate residence, boutique hotel, or private estate.
Just 50 minutes from Madrid via high-speed AVE train.
