Diego de Anaya, the Bishop of Seville had a palace built on this site in 1401, opposite the Cathedral on one side of the city's most attractive and romantic square. The building you now see here dates from the 1860s and houses the university's Faculty of Modern Languages. The architectural style is pure neoclassical, although you might spot one baroque carving of a coat-of-arms. The parts worth visiting are the courtyard, the majestic staircase, the bust of Miguel de Unamuno (by Victorio Nacho), and the main hall with paintings of Felipe V and Carlos III (by Antonio González Ruiz). Take a break in the faculty's café (which used to be the stables). Admission is free.
