A Neoclassical pleasure pavilion at the far end of the Jardín del Príncipe, built between 1794 and 1803 over an old farmhouse that gave it its name. Juan de Villanueva began it and Isidro González Velázquez gave it its final form; its interior, with frescoes by Maella, was decorated mostly by Jean-Démosthène Dugourc. Patrimonio Nacional runs it, and it can be visited.
