Palace of Superunda, Renaissance palace in Ávila, Spain

The Palace of Superunda displays granite ashlar work with two flanking towers and three balconies decorated with coats of arms on its upper floor.

Pedro Ochoa Aguirre commissioned modifications to the existing structure in 1580, and later the palace passed to Count Jose Manso de Velasco y Chaves in the 1800s.

The palace contains a collection known as Caprotti Image gallery, featuring works by the Italian painter Guido Caprotti who acquired the building in the 20th century.

Visitors can access the palace daily from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM between April and June, with reduced hours from November through March.

The interior features a lintelled courtyard and a stone staircase crafted by stonemasons Simon Martin and Pedro Pescador, with Juan Vela completing the work in 1593.
