The project was initially commissioned to Francisco Reynals Toledo (later replaced by Frank Rank).^[2] Influenced by the neoplateresque Spanish pavilion for the 1900 International Exposition in Paris,^[1] it closely followed the project of the 16th-century Palace of Caicedo in Granada.^[2] Built between 1913 and 1916, the works were directed by Eladio Laredo and Benito Guitart.^[2]

It became the headquarters of the Spanish Ombudsman in 1983.^[3]
