*** Casa Palacio del Conde de la Corte - HISTORY ***

 

It was in 1919 when Don Agustín, VI Count of the la Corte de la Berrona, decided to become a cattle dealer when he bought, at age 24, the Marquise Tamaron’s widow cattle ranch. At that moment, the Conde de la Corte cattle ranch was born, descendant of the prestigious and influential cattle ranch of Vistahermosa, with the eagerness to go deep in the three basic characteristics of the brave bulls: trapio (elengace), fierceness and nobility.

The habitual house of Don Agustín soon became the meeting, discussion and promotion center of the bullfighting world in the XX century. This is why Miura, Ponce, Mint, Vitorino and some other prestigious names baptize the rooms of this remodelled palace.

Don Agustín María de Mendoza y Montero de Espinosa, VI Count of the Corte de la Berrona, was born in Zafra in March of 1895.

To keep the spirit of the cattle dealer this magnificent space has been remodelled, that maintains and impels the region’s bullfighting world and its a perfect corner for calmness, the gatering and the rest. We have taken to the present date a space with history, past and future, intending to offer a kind place, as open as it is exclusive: the perfect point of gathering between our wishes and yours.
