Zabálburu Building

Next to the palace yesterday, is this building.

19th century. Work attributed to Juan segundo de Lema and built around 1890. The neomudejar styled facades still remain, after the interior was completely redone in 1990. In the basement, a section of a Muslim mural from the 12th century is preserved.

Both buildings are near to Segura river. The wall surrounding Murcia in times of Muslims, as well as a defense against military attacks, was also a way to fend off the flood of the river.
