Casa del Chapiz, 16th-century Moorish palace in Albaicín district, Granada, Spain.
The Casa del Chapiz consists of two interconnected buildings featuring arches, columns, and traditional Islamic architectural elements within its garden setting.
Originally part of Dar al-Bayda palace, the property was confiscated from its Morisco owners in 1571 and transferred to the Spanish Crown.
The building houses the School of Arab Studies since 1932, contributing to academic research and preservation of Al-Andalus heritage.
Located at Camino del Sacromonte 1, the palace opens Monday through Friday from 9:00 to 18:00 with free admission for visitors.
The central courtyard contains an original elongated pool surrounded by white marble columns repurposed from earlier Nasrid constructions.
