La Casa del Cabildo: inmueble y solar en el paisaje urbano del barroco compostelano

Abstract

The Consortium of Santiago’s recent restoration of the chapter house, which opened to the public at the start of 2012, provided an opportunity to study new aspects of the site and the building, which boasts the finest Baroque screen facade in Santiago de Compostela. The most important findings of the study can be found in this paper, a text illustrated with the author’s proposals with regard to the floor plans and elevations of the houses that occupied the site prior to the building, and with a drawing indicating which walls are new and which have been reused.
