Casa del Cordón
The Casa del Cordon (Cord house) by Simon de Colonia in Burgos (Castille and León, Spain) is a 15th century palace which has a Franciscan cord motif carved over the portal. A plaque declares that this is the spot where the Catholic Monarchs welcomed Columbus on his return, in 1497, from the second of his voyages to the Americas. 2004-05-29.
