Calle Bailén, 10, 28013 Madrid
A 16th century Baroque style building declared an Asset of Cultural Interest. King Philip V commissioned architect Filippo Juvara to design the Palace, but it was his disciple, Juan Bautista Sachetti, who actually executed the project on Filippo's death and Sabatini completed the building by carrying out additional work and the Palace decoration. It has been the Spanish monarch's official residence ever since its first occupant, King Charles III. Although the monarch doesn’t actually live there now, it's used for official receptions and formal events.
