Palacio del Príncipe de Anglona, Baroque palace in Madrid, Spain.

The Palacio del Príncipe de Anglona stands at the intersection of Calle Segovia and Calle de San Andrés, featuring a traditional two-story Spanish baroque facade.

Francisco de Vargas, advisor to Catholic kings and Charles I, initiated the construction of this palace in 1530, which underwent major renovations in 1776 by Vicente Barcenilla.

The palace received its name from Pedro Alcántara Téllez Girón and Alonso Pimentel, representing the power of Spanish nobility during the 17th and 18th centuries.

While the upper floors serve as private residences, the Instituto Madrileño de Formación operates in the lower levels of the building, maintaining its contemporary functionality.

The palace grounds include a garden designed by Nicolás Chalmandrier in 1761, featuring a spiral fountain made of glossy stone and pathways laid in herringbone patterns.
