The former Nasrid madrasa, which Fernando II gave to the city council in 1500: between 1500 and 1513 the hall of the Caballeros XXIV, with its Mudéjar ceiling, was added. Between 1722 and 1729 José de Bada y Navajas almost rebuilt it in the Baroque style, and the decoration around the façade windows and its painted decoration date from that work; only the Nasrid oratory was kept. It belongs to the University of Granada and reopened to the public at the end of 2011.
