"Over the centuries, the palace underwent several transformations, resulting in a sumptuous residential complex with a picturesque and harmonious appearance. The house combines several styles, such as Renaissance, Mudejar, medieval and Gothic, with beautiful Muslim touches.
Throughout its history, the house has been the setting for major Hollywood productions such as Crusade (Kingdom of Heaven, in Portugal) and Lawrence of Arabia, in 1942.
After entering through a Renaissance-style marble portal, the two-story palace extends over two Andalusian-style courtyards pleasantly decorated with fountains and statues.
As you tour the Casa de Pilates, you will discover that it is a small art gallery housing beautiful pieces such as Greek and Roman statues, tapestries, furniture and paintings by renowned artists such as Goya.
In the garden area, you will find a pleasant oasis of tranquility that will make you forget the noise of the city center and the rush, typical of large urban centers."

"Casa de Pilatos is a stunning blend of Renaissance and Mudejar architecture nestled in the heart of Seville. Built in the 15th century, this grand mansion features a captivating mix of Andalusian and Italian styles, showcasing intricate tilework, lush courtyards, and elegant fountains. Its name, "House of Pilate," is inspired by the owner's alleged connection to Pontius Pilate's house in Jerusalem. Visitors can wander through its beautifully adorned rooms and gardens, taking in the rich history and artistic splendor that makes Casa de Pilatos a must-see gem in Seville."

"A typical palace of Seville. The building is a mix of Italian Renaissance and Mudéjar styles, and it is considered the prototype of the Andalusian palace. Inside, there are beautiful azulejos (decorative tiles). Basic ticket for visiting only the first floor and the gardens; with an additional fee for visiting the second floor as well.I found the price to be a little to expensive for only allowing to visit the first floor and the gradens.
