Palace of the Tower of Celles, Baroque mansion in Celles, Spain.

The Palace of the Tower of Celles stands as a cubic structure with quadrangular towers at each corner and a central columned courtyard.

The construction began in the 16th century and underwent expansion in the late 17th century under Pedro Argüelles Quirós y Valdés, dean of Santiago Cathedral.

The south facade displays monumental characteristics with linteled openings framed by columns with pseudo-Tuscan capitals and a classical frieze supporting a balcony.

The interior of the palace remains inaccessible due to structural instability, with the courtyard largely collapsed and significant safety concerns.

The palace reconstruction in 1668-1673 by Diego González de Gajano includes facade elements potentially designed by Galician architect Domingo de Andrade.
