A 15th-century house

Misnamed the ‘House of Juan Bravo’

Former Palace of the Tordesillas, an example of an urban noble residence. Granite façade, a doorway with a large alfiz decorated with diamond-shaped motifs, and a Plateresque gallery added in the 16th century.

All the evidence suggests that this house, generally known as Juan Bravo’s, did not belong to this rebel, as Charles V’s order to “remove, break and chip away all emblems, coats of arms and crests” that might recall the houses or dwellings of the rebels and their supporters would have been carried out with the utmost rigour, and even more so in the case of the house belonging to the captain from Segovia.
