Situated in Hondarribia, Spain, Casa de Casadevante, a building dating to the 16th or 17th century, serves as a testament to a significant historical event. The house, with its two entrances, is where negotiations for a truce following the heroic siege of 1698 occurred. Within its walls, you will find a circular courtyard, old doors, ornaments, and antique items. There is a plate with text at Casa de Casadevante. The text on the plate reads: 'In this house, the emissaries of the Prince of Condé and the authorities of the town negotiated the terms of the truce that followed the heroic siege of the year 1698.' The building is zaioff (16th or 17th century).
