Mercado público de La Unión
Mercado público de La Unión, Modernist marketplace in La Unión, Spain.
The Public Market building features iron columns supporting an octagonal metal roof, with large glass surfaces allowing natural illumination throughout the structure.
Constructed in 1907 during the lead and silver mining economic peak, architect Victor Beltri designed this structure as the central food market for La Unión.
The market building, declared a Cultural Heritage Site in 1975, now hosts the International Festival of Mining Songs, combining commerce and artistic traditions.
The facility maintains commercial activities while offering guided tours, requiring advance reservations for groups interested in exploring the modernist architecture.
The main facade displays pinnacles adorning the cornices in various shapes, from rounded to fleur-de-lis forms, with windows combining Romanesque and Gothic influences.
