Casa Urquiaga, also known as Casa Calonge, stands along Trujillo’s central Plaza de Armas, a striking royal blue colonial mansion that dates back to the early 17th century. Magnificently restored, the mansion features ornate courtyards and rooms, offering a vivid window into the city’s political history. Visitors can explore its lavish interiors, which are adorned with period furnishings. The mansion also houses a small but significant collection of gold and ceramics from the Chimu and Moche empires, providing a deeper understanding of the region’s rich cultural heritage.
