The Carriages

Upon entering the palace, there’s a room right in front of you: I recommend seeing it as it’s worth the visit 👍 It’s a small suite of rooms with two magnificent carriages and ceramic plates 👍

The Salons

One of the most interesting aspects of this palace is that each room is different from the others. Every room has furniture, colors, and paintings distinct from the rest. You won’t get bored during this visit 👍

For instance, take a look at these two photos:

These are two salons in the palace, each with chairs and a table, but their materials, lines, and styles are completely different!

The Ballroom

The ballroom is somewhat the main chamber of the Marquis de Dos Aguas Palace, or at least the largest one. It’s, for me, the most beautiful room in the palace! You can see the musical instruments that were used in this room:

  • A piano
  • A harp
  • Guitars

One can perfectly imagine the Marquis waltzing with his guests 👍

In this incredible room, photo opportunities are everywhere 👍📸

History

Built in the 15th century, the palace has been a silent witness to numerous eras and historical events. It’s named as such because, for generations, the Marquis de Dos Aguas’ family lived here. Today, it houses the National Museum of Ceramics, providing visitors with insights into the art and history of Spanish ceramics.

Conclusion

With its uniquely styled rooms and incredible façade, the Marquis de Dos Aguas Palace has many surprises in store for you 👍
