Palacio del Licenciado Butrón, Renaissance palace in Plaza Santa Brígida, Valladolid, Spain

The Palacio del Licenciado Butrón features a three-level interior courtyard with Ionic columns and Renaissance arches adorned with medallions depicting justice motifs.

Francisco de Butrón, a lawyer of the Royal Chancellery, commissioned this palace between 1565 and 1572, incorporating existing buildings from the 15th century.

The interior patio features three sides with columns while the fourth contains an ashlar wall decorated with Flemish-inspired justice-themed medallions.
