Casa Pico de Velasco, Manor house in Voto, Spain

Casa Pico de Velasco stands as a mountain manor with medieval tower foundations in the Angustina neighborhood of Carasa district.

Pedro Fernandez de Velasco transferred the property to his son Pedro de Velasco through his testament in 1382, marking a significant ownership change.

The structure represents the traditional noble mountain houses of Cantabria, reflecting the architectural patterns of regional aristocratic residences.

The building requires immediate preservation efforts due to its deteriorating condition, leading to its inclusion in the Red List of Endangered Heritage.

The property's location near former marshlands, which were dried in the 20th century, connects it to numerous maritime legends and historical events.
