It is one of the most beautiful civil buildings in the city and a specimen of fundamental importance within the domestic architecture of Mannerism in Andalusia. At present only the façade is preserved from the primitive construction.

Pardo House

The façade, completed in 1636, is resolved into three floors divided into three axes and seems inspired by some architectural treatise. Each and every one of the elements show to be designed to contribute to a very studied overall idea: the height of each body decreases with respect to the lower one to give a greater sense of elevation; The pediments of the lower bodies adopt the split shape, to create a greater articulation between the windows of the same axis, while those of the attic are closed.
