Mirambell House of Banyoles
The Mirambell House of Banyoles, with a marked Gothic style, is located between Major Street and Font Square.
This is a building consisting of a ground floor and two upper floors that was built between the 15th and 16th centuries. On the ground floor we can see three large arcades that formed a large porch. It is worth mentioning that these arcades were walled up in 1788 and, nowadays, between the arcades there is a shop.

On the first floor of the Mirambell House of Banyoles, we can see three ogee-arched windows with sculptured arches. These windows have a marked Gothic style and are formed by an ogee arch with vegetal decoration. Furthermore, this arch is framed by a moulding in which different elements, such as a lion or the heads of two angels, are sculpted at the ends.
