]]> Palace of the Guevara family, located in Lorca (Murcia). It was completed at the end of the 17th century and is an example of civil Baroque architecture. The most striking feature is its altarpiece façade (of anonymous authorship), with Solomonic columns and a heraldic display (Guevara, Marín, García de Alcaraz and Ponce de León). The owner of the house, Don Juan de Guevara, was a knight of the Order of Santiago. The building is also notable for its courtyard, staircase and various works of art (especially paintings by Camacho Felices)
