Private tour of the Duque de Almodóvar Mansion in Comillas

2 hours 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English and 2 more

A unique visit! Discover this magnificent 19th century mansion, unique in Comillas, as it is one of the few that remain in the hands of the original family and, in addition, it is inhabited, as its owners spend their summer vacations there.

The construction is inspired by English rustic architecture, in stone, brick and wood. During the guided tour we will know the rooms of the main floor: the hall, the living room, the dining room, among others and a fantastic staircase of modernist style.

After the visit you can combine it with a tour of the main squares and streets of Comillas, the largest exponent of Modernist art in Cantabria.

In addition, you can include the famous Capricho de Gaudí, a modernist building designed by the celebrated architect, at the request of the Indian Maximo Díaz de Quijano, noted for its ceramic decoration, its striking minaret and the prominence of vegetation and music.
