Museum in San Lorenzo de El Escorial, Spain. The Casita del Infante is a historic building in San Lorenzo de El Escorial, Spain. It was constructed as a private home for the Infante Gabriel of Spain, hence its name. The small residence was built in the late 18th century during the reign of his father, Charles III of Spain.

The Casita was built in an era when it was popular for nobles and royalty to have a small "hideaway" where they could entertain informally. The most famous example of this is the Petit Trianon at Versailles.[1]
