The Orellana Pizarro Palace, located in Trujillo, is a monument that combines Renaissance and Baroque elements. Its history dates back to the 16th century, when Juan Pizarro de Orellana, cousin of Francisco Pizarro and first Corregidor of Cuzco, decided to renovate an old military building in Trujillo, property of the Vargas family. He transformed this defensive construction into a stately Renaissance palace.

Beautiful Renaissance palace renovated by Juan Pizarro, the explorer of Peru. On its facade you can see two rectangular towers from the 14th and 15th centuries and a large balcony with the individual coats of arms of the Pizarro and Orellana families.
