Palau de Cervelló Museum
As opposed to Convent de Santo Domingo, forming part of the surroundings of the historic Plaza de Tetuán, is the Palace of the Counts of Cervelló, a building of singular importance in the contemporary history of the city since, when the Royal Palace was demolished in 1810, it became the official residence of the monarchs on their visits to the city.
In 1814, for example, Ferdinand VII was received in it, adorning himself for this purpose with triumphal arches, allegories and portraits of the king; in the palace he signed the decree that dissolved the Cortes and repealed the Constitution of 1812, and years later, in 1840, his wife María Cristina abdicated here from the regency.
The building was built in the eighteenth century by the counts of Cervelló, lords of Oropesa, although only the façade is preserved with its original appearance, neoclassical style, flanked by two towers and with two floors of balconies. After its recent rehabilitation, the palace houses in addition to the museum, the Municipal Archive of Valencia and the Serrano Morales Municipal Library.
