Casa de Pilatos is a palace in Seville, in the Andalusian region of southern Spain, set on the Plaza de Pilatos. It is also known by its formal name, the Palacio de los Adelantados Mayores de Andalucía, and it is one of the city's best-known historic buildings to visit.
What you will see
The palace is described as a 16th-century building that brings together Mudéjar, Gothic and Renaissance architecture. For many visitors, the appeal lies in the way these styles sit side by side, from the decorative tilework and carved surfaces to the more classical forms of later periods.
Its courtyards and gardens are a central part of the experience, and the palace also holds art collections. Walking through the rooms and outdoor spaces gives a sense of how an aristocratic household in Seville was once arranged.
