A tribute to Hispanity
Built for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929, the Plaza de España was conceived as a tribute to Hispanidad and the cultural unity between Spain and its ancient American kingdoms. Its design, the work of architect Aníbal González, perfectly reflects this spirit, combining architectural elements of various styles, from Renaissance to Mudejar.
A walk through history
When walking through the Plaza de España, we find endless details that tell us the history of Spain and its relationship with America. The 49 pavilions that surround the square represent each of the Spanish provinces and the capitals of Latin America, each with its own architectural style that reflects the cultural richness of the country.
In the center of the square, a majestic staircase leads to an imposing chamber, presided over by a statue of Spain. On both sides of the staircase, two brick towers evoke the ancient walls of the city. A navigable canal crosses the square, crossing four bridges that represent the four peninsular kingdoms: Castilla, León, Aragón and Navarra.
