Plaza de España

It's what we all know as Plaza del Ayuntamiento but here it's also called "plaza vieja" as the town hall was built here in 1696 that once was the Lonja water. On one side is the parish of St. Peter (built between the XVI and XVIII centuries). The bell tower isn't terribly old as it was built on the former at the beginning of the XX century. In the square's center stands a statue of one of the city's favorite sons Jorge Juan and Santacilia, mariner, mathematician and one of Spain's most complete scientists (XVIII century).
