Plaza de la Constitución, Main square in Old Town, San Sebastián, Spain
The Constitution Square holds 19th century buildings with numbered windows arranged in a rectangular pattern around a central cobblestone plaza.
Built in 1817 by architect Ugartemendia after the 1813 fire, the plaza served as a bullfighting arena until a larger venue opened.
The plaza transforms into the central stage for the Tamborrada festival on January 20th, when thousands gather to celebrate with drums.
Numerous bars and restaurants line the perimeter of the square, offering traditional Basque pintxos and regional wines throughout the day.
The windows of surrounding buildings still display their original numbering system from when they functioned as viewing boxes for bullfights.
