Casa Consistorial - Linares
This Neoclassical-style building was constructed between 1865 and 1876, the work of architect Jorge Porrúa Moreno, with modernist terracotta decorations and an imperial staircase. It has a square floor plan and a central courtyard with triple arcades structured in two sections; the lower façade consists of a large main door and a series of three windows with semicircular arches, railings on both sides and Corinthian-style pilasters. The upper body presents the same alignment in the windows as in the lower floor, but highlighting the Corinthian pilasters in the upper part. The central nucleus, built in 1879, stands out on the façade. On the main balcony is a small temple with a clock, designed by local artist Francisco Baños Martos, which plays a fragment of the melody “Estudio Sin Luz”, composed and performed by the master guitarist Andrés Segovia.Location
