The Duke of Sesto's Palace, also known as the Palacio del Marqués de Alcañices, stands at number 13 on Paseo de Recoletos in Madrid, Spain. Originally designed in 1865 by Francisco de Cubas, it now houses the Council General of the Spanish Bar Association. Sited between medianeras, a characteristic of Isabeline Spanish nobility residences, this palace was not built for its current occupant - the Marqués de Alcañices - who sold it to the Council. Instead, it was constructed for an unspecified client.
