Casa de Alfena is a manorial house from the XVIII century, connected to a group of rural buildings and old goldsmith’s workshops. The house and the rural buildings have been adapted to receive guests and the workshops gave place to a gold museum. Classified for its historical, cultural, and architectonic relevance, the house has five rooms (three in the main building, and two in a converted granary), two living rooms, one games room, a rustic granite kitchen, and a large balcony supported by granite pillars. The house shares its gardens, granite threshing-floor, patios, and swimming pool with the museum.
