Episcopal Palace, Episcopal palace in Tarazona de Aragón, Spain

The Episcopal Palace stands on a rock foundation above the Queiles River, featuring six large semicircular brick arches on its main facade.

Built on a former Muslim citadel and royal residence, the palace underwent major transformations between 1386 and 1567 under different episcopal administrations.

The Bishop's Hall contains an extensive collection of episcopal portraits and maintains its original 15th-century Mudéjar coffered ceiling.

The palace offers guided tours where visitors can explore the Renaissance courtyard, decorated halls, and historical architecture throughout the building.

The palace basement cells contain over 200 engravings made by prisoners since the 16th century, featuring religious and military messages.
