"Plaza Mayor" is the name given by an ordinance of the Catholic Monarchs of 1480 that should take the place of a town with enough open space to hold the market and in which the City Hall should be installed.
This famous square is in the heart of the city's historic district, built on the site of the old Plaza del Arrabal, which was home to the most popular market in the late 15th century. It was Felipe II who in 1580 commissioned Juan de Herrera with the project to remodel the square, although it would be Juan Gómez de Mora who would finish the job in 1619.
