      La Quinta de Selgas (selgas-fagalde.com/) is a palace complex and landscaped estate located in El Pito, a small town in the Cudillero council (Asturias, Spain). It was built between 1880 and 1895 at the initiative of the brothers Ezequiel and Fortunato de Selgas Albuerne: the former, a successful businessman in Madrid, provided the financial means to carry out the project, while the latter, a historian and art fan, was the one who drew up the layout, historicist design.

      The mansion preserves its original decoration almost intact, and houses paintings by great masters such as Goya, El Greco, Luca Giordano, Corrado Giaquinto and Vicente Carducho; They are covered by a varied sample of furniture, textiles, gold and glass objects, fans and European and Oriental porcelain. A recently renovated neighboring pavilion displays a collection of tapestries and hosts temporary exhibitions. The 9-hectare gardens are a compendium of European landscaping and are among the most relevant in Spain. It is popularly known as the Asturian Versailles. Despite its importance, it has not been declared an Asset of Cultural Interest. source: es.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Quinta_(Cudillero)
