Passage of Lodares, Art Nouveau covered gallery in central Albacete, Spain

The passage connects Tinte Street with Mayor Street through a glass-roofed commercial corridor supported by 44 pseudo-ionic columns and 12 pilasters.

Gabriel Lodares commissioned architect Buenaventura Ferrando Castells to design this commercial and residential gallery in 1925, following Italian architectural patterns.

The interior decorations feature sculptures representing Industry, Agriculture, and Commerce, along with female and male figures crafted by sculptor Vitaliano Sanchez Corredor.

The passage remains open during business hours and houses retail stores on the ground floor while upper levels contain private residential apartments.

This gallery represents one of only three preserved modernist passages in Spain, alongside Gutierrez Passage in Valladolid and Ciclon Passage in Zaragoza.
