Palace of the Tower of Celles

The Palace of the Tower of Celles is a cubic structure with four corner towers and a central columned courtyard at its core. The building displays a formal geometric arrangement typical of Baroque design.

The original structure was built in the 16th century and expanded in the late 17th century under Pedro Argüelles Quirós y Valdés. The major renovation took place between 1668 and 1673.

The south front displays monumental features with columns and classical details that reflect the building style of its period.

The building is not open to visitors because the courtyard has collapsed and structural instability is present throughout. It is best to view the exterior from a safe distance and follow any local guidance.

The reconstruction between 1668 and 1673 may contain facade elements possibly designed by Galician architect Domingo de Andrade. This potential connection links the building to a notable architect of that era.
