Palace of Villamejor
The Palace of Villamejor (Spanish: Palacio de Villamejor) is a palace located on the Paseo de la Castellana in Madrid, Spain. The state purchased it in 1914 from the Marquesses of Villamejor to serve as the residence of the Prime Minister, a role that it maintained until 1976, when Adolfo Suárez moved the official residence over to the Palace of Moncloa. The palace now houses the Ministry for Territorial Policy.
