There might have been a Gothic house (before 1500) adjacent to the Latrán gate on this plot, because the ground floor vaulting dates back to that period. During Renaissance, two houses were joined together and the seventeenth century gables were preserved. The front is subdivided by windows with stucco decoration around them. The house has an asymmetrical layout, are there are rooms with smooth-surfaced ceilings and rooms with vaults on the first floor.

Two seventeenth century volute gables.
