Website | EmailThis building - located next to Toledo Cathedral - was built in 1575 when Baroque-style architecture was taking over from the Renaissance-style. It resembles El Escorial as its builders were the same - Juan de Herrera, Nicolas de Vergara el Mozo, Juan Bautista Monegro and Jorge Manuel Theotocopuli. It has two floors with impressive towers on each side with Madrid-style spires. Inside, there is a beautiful staircase where some of the famous poems of the Mayor, Gomez Manrique, are reproduced. The Moorish arch that gives access to the Town Hall is also worth a special mention.
