ES: "La calle principal de acceso a la Plaza Mayor tomó forma definitiva a lo largo del siglo XVIII. En ella se conservan dos magníficas casonas del siglo XVII, situadas frente a la escalera de la Plaza del Carmen. Una es la Casa del Corregidor, de planta rectangular, fábrica de sillería en esquinas y noble estructura. La otra es la casa-palacio de los Clemente de Aróstegui, con muy buena rejería y dos blasones a la altura del balcón principal."
EN:"The main access street to the Plaza Mayor took definitive shape throughout the 18th century. Two magnificent mansions from the 17th century are preserved there, located in front of the stairs to the Plaza del Carmen. One is the Casa del Corregidor, with a rectangular floor plan, ashlar masonry in the corners and a noble structure. The other is the palace-house of the Clemente de Aróstegui family, with very good ironwork and two coats of arms at the height of the main balcony."
