Palacio de Francisco de los Cobos, Renaissance palace in Úbeda, Spain
The palace features a stone facade with a cross of Santiago and two scallop shells, reflecting the architectural style of 16th century Spain.
Francisco de los Cobos, secretary to Emperor Carlos V, commissioned architect Luis de Vega to expand his family residence into this palace in 1506.
The construction incorporates elements from previous structures, including portions built over an ancient Jewish cemetery, representing the multicultural heritage of Úbeda.
The palace is undergoing reconstruction to become the headquarters of UNED university, with limited access for visitors during this period.
The palace contained gifts from conquistadors Hernán Cortés and Pizarro, including exotic artifacts from the New World, until fires destroyed the collection.
