Eagle House

One of the most representative buildings of the town, yet little is known about it. Its name comes to us due to the imposing emblem that crowns its facade, an eagle of San Juan that in its chest holds an oval shield with border of eight ermine and with other four quartered: Two cauldrons, corresponding to the Guzman family An oak on waves, corresponding to the Robles family A tree with two steep goats, of the Encinas Five lises, of the Maldonado family Thanks to the type of construction of the house, it is supposed that this was raised at the beginning of the XVI century. The coat of arms was later ordered to be placed by Don Pedro Núñez de Guzmán, hijosdalgo knight of the habit of Santiago, regidor (ruler, mayor) of the town of Ayllón. One of his grandsons, Diego de Guzmán y Maldonado, Robles y Vellosillo, is known for being one of the illustrious sons of the town of Ayllón and was named knight of the Order of Santiago in the 17th century.
