This particular style of architecture was inspired by the Poncio Pilate in Jerusalem. The palace was first constructed by the first marquis of Tarifa in 1518, after he returned from an inspirational two-year journey through Europe and the Holy Land. 
Built in the 16th century and subsequently remodelled in the 19th century, the Lebrija Palace is not just a monument to a particular age or artistic style; its interior is branded with the life of the lady who once owned it: the Countess of Lebrija.
