Town Hall

The Town Hall, the first municipal building, is over 400 years old, dating from 1593.

After its renovation in 1878, the original elements remaining are the high galleries, the Mayor's offices, the magnificent Plenary Hall and the main façade, whose handmade wrought iron gazebo houses a Losada clock, very similar to the one in the Puerta del Sol in Madrid.

The first reference to the “Concejo” in charge of the town’s political-administrative governance dates back to the 15th century. At that time, there were two mayors, two judicial officers, a bailiff, a crown-appointed officer and several aldermen.

Town Hall and Shrine to San Juan Letrán

Both buildings share spaces and relevant architectural details. 

 

Town Hall.

The building is the work of the famous Sevillian architect Aníbal González. The graceful dome from the Shrine to San Juan de Letrán, demolished in 1942, is integrated into the structure. Some records show that the Shrine already existed in 1527.

 

Torre del Reloj
Clock Tower

The tower that belonged to the former El Viso Town Hall, located at the Plaza del Ayuntamiento, was attached to a building from the first half of the twentieth century, which replaced the old Town Hall. This mid-19th-century, neo-gothic tower with a clock in the front overlooks the square.

Palace of the Count of Castellar
