Palacio Arzobispal, Toledo, Archbishop's palace in Toledo, Spain

The Palacio Arzobispal stands across from Toledo Cathedral, featuring a grand façade with granite arches and decorated stone columns.

King Alfonso VII granted the palace to Archbishop Don Rodrigo Jimenez de Rada in the late 1200s, establishing its ecclesiastical significance.

The palace exhibits multiple architectural periods through its Gothic foundation, Renaissance modifications, and Baroque chapel additions across centuries.

Visitors can observe the 800-meter covered passageway connecting the palace to Toledo Cathedral, constructed during Cardinal Mendoza's tenure.

The building's iron balcony displays ornate nymph figures supporting Cardinal Tavera's coat of arms above the main entrance portal.
