It's unique in the city for the artistic quality of its design.

The building includes Renaissance elements.

The standout feature of this property is its entrance, made of carved stone that resembles a medieval style, depicting the adventures of a hunter with his dogs.

This house has a legend that dates back to colonial times, in which a brave conquistador killed a huge snake that had caused several deaths in the population. Some believe this is an allegory of the worship of Quetzalcoatl by the original inhabitants.

However, it is also true that it could have been real since in pre-Hispanic times, the Puebla region was known as Cuetlaxcoapan, which means "the place of snakes."

The facade is all that remains of the original house, built in 1530 by the Spanish conquistador Martín Pérez de Badajoz.
