The Baroque façade with which the cathedral chapter shaped the Platerías square, built between 1754 and 1758 by Clemente Fernández Sarela, a pupil of Casas Novoa, who signed it in 1758. It is almost a stone backdrop: behind it are two dwellings barely 2.70 metres deep, with silversmiths' shops on the ground floor. It was restored in 2011 and opened to the public in 2012 with an exhibition.
