Review:

The Palace of Viana de Cordoba, built in the 15th century, was the home of nobility until 1980. The incumbent Marquise tried to sell the palace surreptitiously on the foreign market. The local authorities got wind of his plans and came to an arrangement to acquire the palace for posterity, along with all the furniture, paintings, tapestries, ceramics and other artifacts. These are on view in the museum on the first floor. The palace is renowned for its 12 patios or mini-gardens which offer welcome shade in summer. They all have different characteristics and tell the history of the occupants through the ages.
