María Pita square, Central square in A Coruña, Spain
The rectangular plaza contains the monumental City Hall building with ornate granite facades and traditional glass-enclosed balconies facing the open pedestrian space.
María Pita, who led the defense against English forces in 1589, inspired the naming of this square and stands immortalized through a bronze statue.
The plaza serves as the main venue for local festivities, hosting seasonal markets, musical performances, and traditional Galician celebrations throughout the year.
Visitors can find the tourist information office, numerous restaurants, and cafes with outdoor seating areas within the perimeter of the square.
The City Hall clock museum displays a collection of timepieces while offering views of the square through its glass-enclosed gallery windows.
