Today it is run by the Fundación Selgas-Fagalde, which opens to the public in summer only: in 2026, from 6 June to 13 September, Tuesday to Sunday. What you visit The La Quinta estate was the family's temporary residence until 1992, when it became the property of the foundation. The brothers began buying land in 1871 and, between 1880 and 1895, lived in the Chalet while the palace was being built. The general ticket includes the gardens, the Main House, the Tapestry Pavilion and the School Museum. In the Main House you walk through French-style salons and alcoves, such as the Grand Louis XVI Salon, the Louis XV Room, the library or the Pompeian Alcove, with the art collection the family gathered. The gardens combine a French garden with neoclassical statues, an Italian one, an English one and a greenhouse. Outside the private part are the Selgas Schools and the temple of Jesús Nazareno, the family pantheon. 2026 hours and prices According to the foundation's website: 6 June to 15 August: Tuesday to Sunday, 10:30 to 21:00. 16 August to 13 September: Tuesday to Sunday, 10:30 to 20:00.
