Palacio de Ayerbe, Renaissance manor house in Ayerbe, Spain

The palace features a symmetrical facade framed by two large towers, with carefully cut stone blocks and a main entrance adorned by vaulted archways.

The palace served as the residence of the Urries family from the 16th century, who held the title of Barons of Ayerbe and controlled substantial territories.

The interior spaces showcase Renaissance coffered ceilings, reflecting the architectural sophistication of 16th-century Aragonese nobility.

The building now functions as a private music school called Palacio de la Música 'El Pilar', offering musical education to the local community.

French troops fortified the palace during the War of Independence, leading to its near-complete destruction before later restoration efforts.
