Palacio Insular de Tenerife, Government building in Plaza de España, Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain.
The Palacio Insular de Tenerife features a rectangular layout with a central courtyard, five floors, and a basement in its central section point.
The construction of this administrative headquarters began in 1934 under President Maximino Acea and was completed in 1940 following architect Marrero Regalado's design.
The main hall contains marble walls and a grand staircase leading to the Assembly Hall, where José Aguiar created murals depicting aboriginal myths and Spanish conquest.
