Puebla - Almond Cake House

(Local Name: Casa del Alfeäique) The original Casa del Alfeäique (Almond Cake House; 4 Ote. 16) is in Av. 4 Ote. 416, a right-hand turning off Calle 2 Nte. This guest-house, thought to have been built built at the end of the 18th c. by Antonio de Santa Maria Incháurregui, boasts coloured tiles, red brick and white stucco, and is one of the best examples of the Poblano style, the local version of Baroque. Today this building is the Museo Regional, in which the principal exhibits are ceramics, weapons, paintings, costumes and furniture.
