Palacio de Velarde, Baroque palace in Oviedo, Spain
The palace features three floors with a square floor plan, organized around an interior courtyard supported by Tuscan columns with two arches on each side.
Manuel Reguera González designed and constructed this palace in the 18th century for Pedro Velarde, a Regidor of Oviedo, completing the exterior by 1767.
The main facade on Santa Ana street displays worked masonry with columns framing the door and a classic balcony topped with a shield bearing the architect's signature.
The Palacio de Velarde now houses part of the Museo de Bellas Artes de Asturias, offering visitors access to both architectural heritage and art collections.
The construction costs of this final grand Baroque palace in Oviedo were so substantial that they nearly caused the financial collapse of the Velarde family.
