Palacio de Bracamonte, Ávila, Renaissance palace in Ávila, Spain.

The Bracamonte Palace features a double-gallery courtyard with Tuscan columns and geometric Gothic decorations on the upper railing at its central patio.

Built in the early 16th century over a medieval house, the palace belonged to descendants of Álvaro Dávila and Juana de Bracamonte, prominent nobles of Castile.

The palace walls display numerous coats of arms representing major families of Ávila, providing visual documentation of the city's noble lineages.

The building currently houses the Territorial Cultural Service of the Junta de Castilla y León, making it an administrative center for regional cultural affairs.

The palace structure attaches directly to the northern medieval wall of Ávila, integrating defensive architecture with residential nobility construction.
