Palacio de los Toledo-Moctezuma, Renaissance palace in Cáceres, Spain.

The Palacio de los Toledo-Moctezuma displays a Renaissance architectural design with a brick gallery façade and multiple heraldic shields on its exterior walls.

Built in the 15th century, the palace gained its name when Mariana de Carvajal y Toledo married Juan de Toledo Moctezuma, a descendant of Aztec emperor Moctezuma II.

The palace represents the connection between Spanish nobility and Mexican heritage through its architectural elements and the family crests of Toledo, Carvajal, and Moctezuma.

The Provincial Historical Archive of Cáceres operates from this building, providing researchers access to important historical documents and records.

The building incorporates the coats of arms of three influential families: Toledo, Carvajal, and Moctezuma, showing the merger of European and Mexican noble lineages.
