Antigua Universidad

Antigua Universidad

The University of Baeza was created by Dr. Rodrigo López, a native of Baeza, chaplain and relative of Pope Paul III from whom he obtained the founding bull in 1538. The structure of the building responds to the typical typology of Renaissance palaces. It maintained its functions as a university until 1824; later, it was a College of Humanities and State School, where Antonio Machado taught, until it became a Secondary Education Institute.
