House of Flemish aspect which seems to have been built in the first half of the 14th century. What identifies with the Flemish houses is the placement of the chimney in the middle of the top of the facade. Originally had two doors, but one of them was covered and in the same location was introduced a window with a high entablature. Of the four Gothic Windows, with shot trilobed who possessed, there are only two.
