Casa Anchieta, Manor house in San Cristobal de La Laguna, Spain.

Casa Anchieta stands as a two-story traditional building with a central courtyard, tiled roof, and three distinctive facades facing different streets.

Built in the 16th century, the structure underwent modifications in the 17th century and received a neoclassical facade renovation by architect Mariano Estanga in 1905.

The building bears the name of Saint Joseph of Anchieta, who spent his first fourteen years of life within these walls before becoming a missionary.

The manor currently functions as a museum dedicated to Jose de Anchieta, featuring exhibits about his life and historical artifacts from different periods.

Original architectural elements from the 1500s remain visible inside, including load-bearing walls, roof structures, a patio, and a cellar in the semi-basement.
