Plaza de la Constitución, the name with which it was baptized in 1933 and with which it has survived to this day and where the City Hall offices are located. It is worth contemplating the façade of this building, where the Bailén coat of arms stands out together with the clock and the turret that had to be built for it. Today we see an electronic chronograph acquired on October 15, 1982, since there have been several that have marked the passage of time, making it necessary to get rid of them due to the rapid breakdowns suffered by the old ones.

Like many of the towns in the region, Bailén's fortune came from mining. The name Bailén derives from the ancient settlement of Baecula.

The Torre de Mengíbar is the tower of the old castle of Mengíbar and the only part of the castle that has been preserved. The tower is located in the center of Mengíbar in the Plaza de la Constitución next to the Mengíbar Town Hall.

In 1933 this well-known park was built in a contemporary style and known as Paseo de las Palmeras. The initiative arises from the then mayor D. Cristóbal Marín Ruíz Castellanos to alleviate existing unemployment in the town, in which the allegorical Monument to the Battle of Bailén would be installed, escorted by 77 palm trees. The work was projected by the architect Mr. Vicente Sánchez Andújar and Mr. Antonio Rivas at the end of the eighties.
