It was declared Private property in 1930.{{citation needed|date=November 2016}} Construction and locationThe palace was built between 1920 and 1922 for Abárzuza, Conde de las Almenas III.[1] It is located on the peak of a granite mountain, 1,011 metres above sea level. It covers 100 acres. Parts of it remain carved into the rock, such as stairs and balconies.[2] Initial ownershipThe Count used the palace to store all his treasures. He accumulated these and there are rumours that some many have been stolen from cathedrals. Financial difficulties forced him to sell the treasures for 2 million pesetas to a US buyer [1] The prime minister Antonio Maura died there by falling down a flight of steps.[2] Civil War usageIt was used as the headquarters for the Republican Army during the Spanish Civil War. Indalecio Prieto and Jose Miaja used it as their base to organise the Battle of Brunete. After the war Franco lived there for many years.[2] Recent yearsThe palace has suffered heavily from looting and vandalism over the years, and a fire destroyed many of the remaining artworks in 1998. This led to it receiving a reduced classification in 2004. A hotel company bought it in 1988 intending to convert it into a luxury hotel.[3] Planning permission was refused for the hotel in 2013 due to the building's value as a cultural monument [4] References1. ^1 {{cite web|title=Los claroscuros del Palacio de Canto del Pico y del Conde de las Almenas|url=http://www.cosasdehoyo.com/2013/10/los-claroscuros-del-palacio-de-canto.html|accessdate=19 April 2014}} {{Spain-palace-stub}}2. ^{{cite web|title=Traces of War|url=http://en.tracesofwar.com/article/48415/Canto-del-Pico-Palace.htm|accessdate=19 April 2014}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=El Canto del Pico, the decay of an emblem|url=http://brujulasierra.es/3021/el-canto-del-pico-la-decadencia-de-un-emblema|accessdate=19 April 2014}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=El Canto del Pico will not become a hotel|url=http://quiosco.elmundo.orbyt.es/ModoTexto/paginaNoticia.aspx?id=18227817&tipo=1&sec=El%20Mundo&fecha=01_10_2013&pla=pla_11014_Madrid|accessdate=19 April 2014}} 3 : Palaces in the Community of Madrid|Bien de Interés Cultural landmarks in the Community of Madrid|20th-century architecture |
