Minería Palace (Palacio de Minería)

2013 marked the 200th anniversary of its construction. It is a neoclassical building, the most representative of the style in America. It was planned and built between 1797 and 1813 by Manuel Tolsá, a Valencian architect and sculptor, to be used as the headquarters of the Real Seminario de Minería. The most prominent areas are the Old Chapel, the Hall, the Rector Hall, the Director Hall, the Gallery of the Rectors the Library and the Manuel Tolsá Museum. It is not just a palace because of its architecture, details and decor, but because of its commitment to culture, with activities are organised for all audiences.
