Pedro Rodriguez de Ledesma constructed the Palacio de los Momos in the 15th or early 16th century, originally named Casa de los Sanabria. It served as a private residence, a meson, and a house for arriers. Today, only the façade of the original palace remains, adorned with Gothic Isabelino elements displaying dragons, odd animals, children fighting, and two crude busts on the sill. The main entrance is enclosed by a breaking chambrana, starting at approximately the height of the sillars (the dovelas at the corners, also known as dovelas basales).
