Casa de Castril

Carrera del Darro, 43, Granada, Spain
Tel: +34 958 225 603
 

Stand on the other side of Carrera del Darro and admire the fine Plateresque facade before entering this beautiful Renaissance palace. It was built around 1539 for Hernando de Zafra, a soldier and nobleman who assisted the Catholic Monarchs in conquering the city. You'll see his coat-of-arms carved above the front door. Inside, after walking up the main staircase, you'll come into a central patio with galleries above you. The building is now home of the Archaeology Museum with a fascinating selection of artefacts ranging from the Paleolithic era to the Moorish occupation.
