Description
ARCHITECTURE OF PLAZA DE ESPANA IN SEVILLE by JENNY RAINBOW.
Architectural details of the buildings and brdges of Plaza de Espana in Seville.
It was built because of the Ibero-american Exhibition of 1929, held in Seville. Its creator was Anabal Gonzalez. He mixed a style inspired by the Renaissance with typical elements from the city: exposed brick, ceramics and wrought iron (worked by Domingo Prida). Its floor plan is semicircular. It is dominated by 2 towers, one on each side of the enclosed area, which frame the central building where the main rooms are. Between the two towers runs a network of galleries with an arcade of semicircular arches leading to exits in different parts of the square, where a fountain stands.
