The palace itself reveals in its details, namely the main staircase, the fact that it has been rebuilt in the XX century, I had hoped for a wider use of real coloured stone.
Also the gilding didn't seem to have been made with gold leaf, which is a pity having in mind that it's not as expensive as people may think.
The library is beautiful Im its vibrant colour and the collection of historical books and documents is rather impressive. Would be interesting to study the entire archive.
As for the Art collection, I was really stunned. It is magnificent, a lot better then I expected, besides the very well known Goyas, one can find an enormous array of historical portraits I didn't know the House of Alba de Tormes posessed.
It's clearly a must see in Madrid.
Congratulations for the musealization.

Espectacular, no imaginaba que el palacio tuviese tantos salones, la exquisitez de su decoración, la cantidad de obras de arte y objetos no tienen parangón.

O: Palacio de Liria
I když je nyní madridskou rezidencí vévodů z Alby, není těžké si všimnout, že Palacio de Liria nenese jejich jméno. Původně byl palác postaven pro třetího vévodu z Lýrie na konci 18. století, ale od předání rukou Albasům neztratil nic ze své původní slávy.
Palác je nyní otevřen veřejnosti, kde si můžete prohlédnout 14 pokojů, obdivovat jednu z nejlepších soukromých uměleckých sbírek na světě; s prací Goyi a Rubense; a dozvědět se více o minulosti paláce s pohlcujícím zvukovým průvodcem.
