Casa do Cabido

Casa do Cabido is a stunning historic house located in Santiago de Compostela, Galicia, Spain, facing the picturesque Praza de Praterías. Completed in 1758, this Baroque-style building was originally designed to enhance the urban landscape and served as the seat of the Cathedral Council before becoming private property in the mid-19th century. Its unique façade, which complements the local architectural style, adds to the charm of the area. The house has inspired notable literary works, including Valle-Inclán's 'My Sister Antonia' and Federico García Lorca's poem 'Dance of the Moon.' Additionally, it served as a filming location for the 2005 movie 'The Carpenter's Pencil,' making it a point of interest for both tourists and researchers alike.
