The palace that the Úbeda councillor Francisco Vela de los Cobos had built in the middle of the 16th century, designed by Andrés de Vandelvira and executed by the stonemason Jorge Leal. Its stone façade has three storeys, with a corner balcony and an arcaded gallery on the top one; the central courtyard disappeared in the 19th century. It is still lived in as a residence and allows visits.
