Casa de Infantes, Aranjuez, Neoclassical residence in Aranjuez, Spain.
Casa de Infantes is a neoclassical residence in Aranjuez featuring a symmetrical facade with precise geometric lines. The ground level is marked by an elegant arcade system that structures the entrance and gives the building its characteristic appearance.
The building was commissioned in 1772 by royal order and designed by architect Juan de Villanueva for Infants Gabriel and Antonio. Its construction was part of the wider program to modernize Aranjuez as a royal residence city.
The building shows how royal residences in the 18th century could be both functional and elegant. Its clean design reflects a shift toward practical spaces while maintaining the dignity expected of structures for royal family members.
The building is a protected monument and can be visited through guided tours that explain the architectural details. It is recommended to plan your visit in the morning when the facade is best lit.
The building was designed as a private residence for the royal family rather than for public ceremony or display. This focus on private functionality sets it apart from other palaces in Aranjuez.
