Linares Palace
Madrid, Spain, Spain
Linares Palace is a lavish 19th-century neo-baroque mansion on Madrid's Plaza de Cibeles, built between 1872 and 1900 for the Marquises of Linares, José de Murga and Raimunda de Osorio, who amassed wealth from Cuban silver mines.
Designed by architects Carlos Colubí, Adolf Ombrecht, and Manuel Aníbal Álvarez, it blends French-inspired opulence with Italian details, featuring grand staircases, Carrara marble, and eclectic interiors from Louis XV Rococo to Luis Felipe styles across four floors.
Legend claims it was divided into separate living quarters for the childless couple under a papal vow of chastity, with rumors of ghosts tied to a hidden daughter and cries heard within; acquired by the state in 1996, it now serves as Casa de América headquarters hosting cultural events.
