Casa Museo Martín Alonso Pinzón

The Casa Museo de Martín Alonso Pinzón, in Palos de la Frontera (Huelva) Spain, is a civil building that belonged to the Pinzón family that actively participated in the discovery of America. In this House, built in the mid-15th century, according to the Renaissance style of the time, by Martín Pinzón, his three sons Martín Alonso, Vicente Yáñez and Francisco Martín Pinzón were born (brothers of father and mother, since what seems to be a second name, generally received from the godfather of baptism). These three men played an essential role in the organization and implementation of the Colombian project to reach the East by the West. In the House stands out the 16th century façade, decorated with hornacina framed between two columns and a tile similar to that of the Polido family in Triana, around 1540.
