The Palace of the Duke of Sesto is currently the headquarters of the General Council of Spanish Lawyers (CGAE), located at number 13 Paseo de Recoletos in Madrid, between the church of San Pascual and the López-Dóriga Palace work of the same architect.
One more work by Francisco de Cubas y González-Montes, Marquis of Cubas in Madrid. Built in 1865 for the Duke of Sesto, who was mayor of Madrid and one of the architects of the Alfonso Restoration.
A abrazo.
