Goyeneche Palace, Nuevo Baztán

Nuevo Baztán, Spain

The Goyeneche Palace in Nuevo Baztán, Community of Madrid, Spain, is an eighteenth-century palace with a linked church. It was designed by José de Churriguera, an architect known for a profusely decorated style known as Churrigueresque. The church's interior is an example of this baroque style, whereas the exterior is less ornate. The building is one of a number of palaces in Spain and Peru which are associated with the Goyeneche family. Nuevo Baztán was built as a model village by Juan de Goyeneche (1656–1735) to accommodate industrial and agricultural projects. The dedication of the church to Saint Francis Xavier reflects the Navarrese origins of the Goyeneche family.
