Casa de Cisneros is a historic palace located in the Plaza de la Villa in Madrid, built in 1537 in the Plateresque style at the behest of Benito Jiménez de Cisneros. The building showcases a facade that was renovated in 1909 when the Madrid City Council acquired it. Notably, it has preserved its original architectural model and features a gallery dedicated to portraits of Madrid's mayors since 1922. While it has significant historical value, including being the birthplace of Álvaro de Figueroa and the site of Ramón María Narváez's death, it remains an essential part of Madrid's cultural heritage. Visitors can explore its artistic treasures, although specific visiting hours and admission fees may vary. Accessibility options are available.
