The Priest’s House

View on map

Built in the 17th century, the Priest’s House is located on the junction between the streets of Calle Postes and Solana Alta, on raised ground above the nearby church. Based on different historical documents, it is believed that this house could have belonged to Manuel Godoy. 

Its facade, made entirely of stone, stands out for its impressive main entrance, adorned with a neoclassical front made of polished ashlars and topped by a pediment. A sculpted coat of arms appears on the keystone of the arch. Its origins are unknown, but some studies suggest that it could be related to Carlota Luisa de Godoy y Borbón, daughter of the famous politician. 

Beside the house is the Church Hall, where a range of cultural activities take place throughout the year.

Stone façade with a main entrance featuring a Neoclassical frontispiece in polished ashlar. In the keystone of the arch, a heraldic shield of unknown origin can be seen, apparently linked to the family of Manuel Godoy.
