This beautiful former palace is a magnificent testament to Spanish Renaissance architecture. During a walking tour of Ubeda, I learned that the building of the palace was funded by Juan Molina, a member of Francisco de los Cobos y Molina’s family.

Similar to the Chapel of El Salvador, the Palace of Juan Molina contains Juan Molina’s tomb on the lower level. After Molina’s death, the palace was utilized as a convent. In the mid 19th century, the former palace was converted for use as Ubeda’s Town Hall and is still used for that purpose today. The inner courtyard is a beautiful open space with lots of natural light.

While there are no real activities at this site, it is well worth a visit to see this historical building. There is also nice seating in the inner courtyard and is the perfect spot to take a seat during a walking tour of Ubeda.

This building is the Ayuntamiento or City Hall. As it is a municipal building, we only looked at it from the outside.

The palace of “Vázquez de Molina”, or “de las Cadenas”, is a Renaissance palace. It is located in the “Plaza Vázquez de Molina” and is the seat of the City Council since 1850. r. It is a part of the monumental Renaissance complex of Úbeda, which together with that of Baeza, was declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 2003.It also has the status of Cultural Interest. It is being built in the sixteenth century, and is also known as the “Palace of the Chains”, this according to some of the chains that surround its market. On the moment of pour visit it was closed, so we just have one picture of it, but there are mre things to see at only a few steps away, nice location for a walk.
