This building is listed in the National Assets of Cultural Interest. 

The building was built in the 15th century and has now been completely restored to house the Esteban Vicente Museum of Contemporary Art. 

Prince Henry (Henry IV on his accession to the throne) ordered it to be built on top of the house of Ruy Díaz. The Catholic Monarchs stayed here on several occasions and, following the death of Isabella the Catholic, it was split between several families.  

On the south side, Juan López de Medina and his wife Catalina de Barros founded a hospital (commonly known as Hospital de Viejos). This included a chapel that has a wooden coffered ceiling with the recumbent statues of the founders placed in niches on either side of the presbytery.
