Old town hall of Laredo, Medieval town hall in Laredo, Spain

The Old Town Hall lies within six parallel medieval streets at the base of Santa Maria de la Asuncion Church in northern Spain.

King Alfonso VIII granted Laredo its town charter in 1200, establishing it as one of the Four Maritime Villas and initiating substantial urban development.

The historic district contains numerous religious buildings, including Gothic churches, convents, and towers that showcase medieval architectural styles and religious art.

Two original gates, San Marcial and San Martin, remain accessible through the rectangular defensive walls that surround the medieval quarter.

The district includes the House of Four Seasons, built in the 1850s, featuring decorative elements representing spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
