Almacenes Félix Sáenz, Modernist department store building at Plaza Félix Sáenz, Málaga, Spain

The structure features two corner bay windows, continuous balconies with balustrades, and ornate iron railings across its Mediterranean modernist facade.

Constructed between 1912 and 1914 by architect Manuel Rivera Vera, the building replaced a former market hall in the center of Málaga.

The department store employed 300 workers and operated three centers in Málaga province, representing early 20th-century commercial development in Andalusia.

The ground floor and mezzanine currently house an H&M store, while the upper floors contain luxury apartments following extensive renovations completed in 2011.

Archaeological excavations in 2009 revealed 90 Muslim burials oriented toward Mecca, dating from the 8th to 10th centuries beneath the building.
