Building
The building was designed by the Valencian architect Vicente Pascual Pastor in 1906. It is an example of Valencian Art Nouveau architecture of the early twentieth century.
It was commissioned by Enrique Vilaplana Juliá, president of the Alcoy's Savings bank, for his private residence. In the proximities it got up with posteriority realized by the same architect, the headquarters of the banking entity.[2]
The entire facade is made of masonry with a very singular design. The building has two floors.
