La Virgen
de la Inmaculada Concepción
|
The highest niche is in the Town hall´s upper façade. From
its interior presides the famous plaza La Virgen de la
Inmaculada Concepción. The tradition of
the niches dates back to the reconquest era. Their function was to sanctify the areas
previously occupied by the arabs. This one, like most of the others, was emptied during
the republic era and also during the Civil War, the statues were reinstalled after 1940. |
