The Palace of the Counts of Cirat, also known as “the Big House”, is a Renaissance-style building with a civil character. It was built in the last quarter of the 16th century by the Almanseño noble Don Alfonso de Pina. This palace is located in the Plaza de Santa María in the town of Almansa.
This palace is a historical and architectural testimony that deserves to be appreciated for its beauty and cultural significance. If you ever have the opportunity to visit Almansa, I recommend exploring this magnificent Renaissance building. 🏰🌟

It was built in the 18th century as the residence of the Counts of Cirat family, one of the most influential families of the time in the region. After the death of the Counts of Cirat, the building passed through several hands and uses, as a Civil Guard barracks, school and public library. Currently, the building is the headquarters of the Provincial Historical Archive of Albacete.
