It is currently used as a museum and a military archives building.

Our trip to Segovia & Avila was amazing! The coach journey there was very comfortable and out tour guide, Angy, was just a lovely person. She had so much knowledge of the beautiful cities and explained everything very very well. Angy has such a lovely personality too and we didn’t ever hesitate to ask her any questions because she was so approachable. We would definitely recommend doing this tour! If you get Angy as your tour guide you’ll be super lucky!! Thank you Angy! ☺️☺️☺️
Great tour!

The tour was great! If you want to see a lot and have a full meal that will be hard to do. We stopped for a snack in both locations. We were able to tour the cathedral, aquaduct, and castle in Segovia as well as walk around quite a bit of the city and browse some stores. In Avila, we entered the larger of the cathedrals and walked around quite a bit. The Cathedral was amazing but we didn't find much else to do in the time we had. The tour guide provides quite a bit of info in Segovia but just a bit in the beginning at Avila. I thought he did well.
Thank you

The guide Vanessa and driver were great. They give you plenty of time to explore and have a drink and meal. This was my first organized tour and I would be doing another soon.
The tour was organized,...

The tour was organized, and punctual and the bus ride was comfortable. Segovia was a beautiful city wish we had more time there. The tour we picked was in Spanish but they also had to translate the tour into English so I felt it was time spent. In the interim when we walked and completed the tour, we had 1.5 hours to grab lunch and do any additional walking sightseeing, or shopping. I felt rushed and limited.
The Avila portion of the tour I felt could be concluded in less time but it gave us around the same time once the tour was finished. The tour guide was not as knowledgeable and it felt a bit scripted so if you had any questions I felt he was not comfortable answering them.
