Pazo de Meirás

The Pazo de Meirás stands on a hilltop with stone walls, towers, and a chapel constructed in medieval revival architecture style.

Built between 1893 and 1900 by writer Emilia Pardo Bazán, the manor later became Francisco Franco's summer residence through a forced public subscription in 1938.

The building incorporates numerous literary references and symbols throughout its design, reflecting the intellectual interests of its original owner, Emilia Pardo Bazán.

The Spanish state manages guided tours of the property, allowing visitors to explore the architecture and learn about different periods of Spanish history.

A tower within the manor housed Emilia Pardo Bazán's personal library, where she wrote many of her literary works until 1921.
