Royal Palace of El Pardo, Renaissance royal palace in El Pardo, Spain
The Royal Palace of El Pardo stands within 16,000 hectares of woodland on El Pardo Hill, featuring corner towers and a surrounding moat.
Built in 1547 under King Charles I and completed during Philip II's reign, the palace replaced a small castle from the fourteenth century.
The interior displays tapestries based on designs by Bayeu and Goya, along with furniture collections from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
Visitors can access the palace Tuesday through Sunday from 10 AM to 6 PM in winter and until 7 PM in summer, with tickets priced at 9 euros.
Since 1983, the palace functions as the official residence for foreign heads of state during their diplomatic visits to Spain.
