Palacio de los Condes de Santa Ana

Considered to be one of the best examples of 18th century civil architecture in Lucena, its construction was promoted by the Mora-Saavedra family between 1730 and 1750. This family, possibly of Judeo-converted origins, were among the families who settled in Lucena, attracted by the fame of the city in times gone by and the longing to live in the land of their ancestors. In addition to its magnificent façade, its architecture is notable for its two courtyards, the second of which is arcaded, and its beautiful staircase, crowned with a vault, whose style is attributed to two of the last masters of Lucena, Francisco José Guerrero and Pedro de Mena Gutiérrez. The palace houses the Interpretation Centre of the City of Lucena and the Municipal Tourist Information Office, with a series of thematic and exhibition rooms, as well as a sculpture of Eros from the Roman period.
