    Tips

    March 10, 2024

    The Cabildo, named for its gallery of arches (a rare element in the area's architecture), sits in front of the central square and was built in the mid-19th century, possibly for May Revolution celebrations.

    It is one story in length and features a four-arched portico and thick adobe walls twice as thick as current buildings. In the niche you can see the very old ceiling made of cardboard panels and on the outside the mud cake that covers the ceiling.

    It is the smallest cabildo in Argentina and the building has become an architectural, historical and social icon of the place, being considered one of the last ten traditional councils still standing in Argentina. Today it functions as a cultural hall and exhibition center.
