Archbishop Palace

Local namePalacio Arzobispal
LocationToledo, Spain

The Palacio Arzobispal de Toledo or Archbishop's Palace of Toledo is a palace located in front of the Cathedral and next to the City Hall in the city of Toledo, region of Castile-La Mancha, Spain.

It was built on land donated to the church by Jose Manuel Thotocopuli, son of El Greco. The palace was constructed over centuries. Cardinal Tavera charged Alonso de Covarrubias with building an arch connecting to the cathedral as well as the main facade. In the 17th century a partial attempt was made to give uniformity to the facade.

Of interest are the portals, including the main one facing to the Plaza del Ayuntamiento. The flanking wings have composite brick and stone, but the center is smooth stone with a triangular tympanum.
