Palace of the Queixal or dels Trenor

The main façade is all that overlooks the streets Cavallers and Abadía de San Nicolás. This façade consists of a ground floor with a semi-basement and mezzanine floor and two tread floors.

The building, which is included in the typology “Manor house or palace” Eclectic, corresponds to the type based on the medieval noble houses of the Mediterranean area, which underwent reforms in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries or were built at that time already with formal and compositional elements typical of eclecticism. Chronologically the building is dated around 1870 (source Advance of Catalog of the historic center, 1981), by the architect Sebastián Monleón Estellés. This building is known as the Palau dels Queixal or the Trenor and over time it has undergone different interventions.

The original use of the property was single-family, usually, the semi-basement, was used as a warehouse, horses,
woodshed
or cellar; The mezzanine floor could have different uses, either for the service and / or for the lord, where he had his office and on the first floor the main rooms are located. It is currently intended for residential in tread floors and tertiary uses compatible with residential on the ground floor.

Given the social significance of these palaces, it is not difficult to find both unique rooms and old kitchens, libraries, noble rooms, chapels… as elements of interest such as flooring, wall paintings, moldings, interior carpentry, fireplaces, tile coverings…
