Next destination: Eden, Holland

Hi everyone!

Hope you have enjoyed Easter holidays and that you have recharged your batteries for the coming months! This last term opens with a postcard sent to Holland, more specifically to Eden, a town located in the centre of the country, 1470 km away!

We hope our friend Cees will like this postcard of Praterías Square and the beautiful Baroque façade of the Casa do Cabildo.

Luis, an intermediate 2 student, has written a brief text describing this gem of a building. You can read about it in DISCOVER SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA. Thanks, Luis!

Discover Santiago de Compostela XVII. Casa do Cabildo in Praterías Square

Casa do Cabildo is considered to be one of the finest examples of Baroque architecture in Galicia. This impressive house was designed by Clemente Fernández Valera in 1758 and is renowned for its exquisite facade that encloses the Praza das Praterías. It was restored by the Santiago Consortium in 2011 and since then has formed part of the network of museums in the historic city.
