Photographers will find it one of Andorra’s most attractive locations. The city is home to House of Areny-Plandoliteone of the most beautiful historical places in Andorra, apart from its quiet streets, small shops, exquisite hotels and old churches. It is the only stately home in Andorra that has survived the test of time. The family’s social prominence is due to Guillem d’Areny-Plandolit, baron of Senaller and Gramenet and the first syndic of the general council of the Andorran valleys, who spearheaded the new reform in 1866. He is well known in Andorran history for his work in the iron forges , which was one of the most prominent industries of the time.
The original structure dates from the 12th century and has undergone various renovations. The trip takes you to 19th and 20th century Andorra, where you will see many things that are unique and peculiar to this family, which was very influential between 1700 and 1900, as the only family with noble titles in the principality at a time when luxuries and amenities were non-existent.
You can also see the Andorra National Auditorium and the estate gardens, both of which are right next door. Andorra Rural Habitat Circuit includes Casa d’Areny-Plandolit. Your visit, which will last approximately one hour, can be done with either an audio guide or a guided tour. This museum contains a shop on the premises, as well as a restaurant.
