The Palacio Lili, located in the town of Zestoa in Gipuzkoa, is a historical monument that offers a glimpse into the life of Basque nobility during the late Middle Ages. Built in the 16th century, this fortified palace belonged to the influential Lili family, whose lineage played a prominent role in the region’s political and social history. The building is a fine example of Renaissance architecture, with defensive elements that reflect the turbulent times of its construction.
The palace has been carefully restored and transformed into a museum that highlights the history, culture, and daily life of the Basque nobility. Visitors can explore the richly decorated interiors, which include period furniture, tapestries, and household artifacts that provide insight into the lifestyle of its former residents.
One of the main attractions is the immersive guided tour, which uses multimedia presentations, reenactments, and storytelling to bring the history of the palace and the Lili family to life. The experience is designed to engage visitors by recreating historical events and the atmosphere of the time.
