Palacio de los Corbos - Mérida, Badajoz, España - Renaissance Architecture on Waymarking.com

"El interés por los cánones clásicos que se produce durante el Renacimiento, dejó su huella en el palacio del conde de los Corbos, conocido popularmente como la Casa de los Milagros, que se levantó en el siglo XVI aprovechando los restos del templo de Diana.

Tras la expropiación de la casa en 1972 para adecuar el área del templo, se determinó su demolición. Afortunadamente, poco tiempo después se paralizó esta decisión y se mantuvieron los restos del palacio que aún no se habían eliminados e, incluso, se recompusieron otros."

"The interest in classical canons that emerged during the Renaissance left its mark on the palace of the Count of Corbos, popularly known as the House of Miracles, which was built in the 16th century using the remains of the Temple of Diana.

Following the expropriation of the house in 1972 to adapt the temple area, its demolition was decided. Fortunately, this decision was halted shortly afterward, and the remains of the palace that had not yet been removed were retained, and others were even reconstructed."
