House of Cordón

The Casa del Cordón displays three pointed arch doors on its facade, along with the coat of arms of the Catholic monarchs on the exterior walls.

Built in the 15th century by Juan Sánchez de Bilbao, the structure incorporates a medieval tower from the 13th century as its central architectural element.

The building houses permanent exhibitions about regional history and serves as the headquarters for Fundación Vital, a banking foundation affiliated with Kutxabank.

Visitors can access Casa del Cordón at Calle Cuchillería 24 in Vitoria-Gasteiz, with inquiries handled through phone number +34 945259673 or email obrasocial@cajavital.es.

The main entrance features a Franciscan order chain design that inspired the building's name, as 'cordón' means cord or chain in Spanish.
