The Benicarló palace, on the left, is the current seat of the Valencian Courts. The works on this palace were started in the 15th century by Francesc Martínez Biulaigua, who soon died. He was succeeded by several teachers, among them Pere Compte, who made the staircase to the courtyard.

The palace was the residence of the Borja family in Valencia, but in 1870 it became the property of the Count of Benicarló. During the Civil War it was the seat of the Republican Government and after the Civil War it was the official residence of Franco during his visits to Valencia. From 1973 it was the headquarters of the National Movement and in 1982 the headquarters of the first Valencian autonomous government.
