The Legorburo building was designed in 1935 by architects José Luis García Pellicer and Baldomero Pérez Villena for a corner of Calle Tesifonte Gallego and Calle Mayor, in the centre of Albacete. It was erected during the 1930s, a decade of strong growth for the city. The building is listed in the Docomomo Ibérico registry as a reference of the modern movement in Castilla-La Mancha.

The building's name comes from the Legorburo family, and it stands at the corner of Tesifonte Gallego and Mayor streets, in the commercial heart of Albacete. Its ground floor has long housed shops and offices, so the facade is seen daily by people crossing the city centre. The building is listed in the Docomomo Ibérico registry as a reference of the modern movement in Castilla-La Mancha.

The building is located at Calle Mayor 33 in the city center and is easy to reach on foot. The facade and ornaments are protected, viewable from the street, while the interior is mainly occupied by residential apartments and offices.

The central semi-elliptical tower rises distinctly above the adjacent square sections, creating a striking vertical accent. This design element stands out clearly from the flatter surroundings and is further emphasized by the striped patterns.
