This large square is the beating heart of the city. It is surrounded by imposing buildings, such as those of the company Unión y el Fénix Español (1926-1927) with immense glass sections and azulejos, and the Casa Colomera (1928) with two neo-baroque towers. In the middle stands the equestrian statue of Gonzalo Fernández de Córdoba, alias El Gran Capitán (see p. 267).
