HISTORY
The Gaviria Palace or Palacio de Buena Esperanza was completed in 1851. Located in the city’s trendy enclave at the time, it was originally conceived as private residence of Manuel Gaviria, marquis of the House of Gaviria, and his family.

THE BUILDING
This beautiful building by architect Álvaro Bouquel was inspired by the Quattrocento, albeit its interior showcases details from a diversity of architectural styles, alluding to Al-Andalus art, the Catholic Monarchs, Gods and Goddesses of Ancient Greece, as well as tributes to bullfighting.
