The palace built for Fernando Ortega Salido, dean of Málaga cathedral and first chaplain of the Holy Chapel of the Savior; it dates from the middle of the 16th century and its design is attributed to Andrés de Vandelvira. Its central courtyard has arcades on two levels, with columns that combine Nasrid and Renaissance art. It has been a state tourist hotel (parador) since 1929 and has been turned into a museum to make its history easier to visit.
