Peñíscola. La Casa de las Conchas

The Shells House
Built in the 17th century, the Casa de las Conchas is an exceptional example of Spanish Renaissance architecture. Its design presents a combination of Gothic and Renaissance elements, giving it a unique and distinctive style.The façade of the Casa de las Conchas is a true visual spectacle. Hundreds of carefully placed seashells adorn the façade of the building, creating a surprising and eye-catching visual effect. This peculiar decorative detail has turned the Casa de las Conchas into one of the main symbols of Peñíscola and a place frequently photographed by visitors.

An amazing building! Those seashells must have taken forever to install. The bright blue against the pale walls makes for a striking image. V
