18th Duchess of Alba de Tormes

https://batnomad.com/2017/07/seville/

In the late 15th century the economy was strong and many famous buildings still standing now were build during that time, as is the case with Palacia de las Duenas – which is now a national monument. I opted not to do the whole guided or audio tour, maybe the latter would have been a good choice; there is so much inside, so much history and as expected from a prominent aristocratic family the objects inside are old, priceless and come with a very long lineage. Doña María del Rosario Cayetana Fitz-James Stuart y de Silva, 18th Duchess of Alba de Tormes, Grandee of Spain (28 March 1926 – 20 November 2014) was the previous head of the House of Alba, she until her death held the Guinness Book of Records title for the largest number of noble titles with 57 titles – the current head now, is Carlos Fitz-James Stuart, 19th Duke of Alba.
