This historic building located in Malaga's Old Town was constructed in the late 18th Century as a palace, as the name implies, for the Marquis de Valdeflores.

Today, the palace houses the Servicio Provincial de la Mujer (Provincial Women's Welfare Service). Many of the rooms contain preserved original features like ceilings and fireplaces.
