Monte de Piedad y Caja de Ahorros de Alcoy, Financial heritage building in Alcoy, Spain
The Monte de Piedad y Caja de Ahorros building exhibits Valencian Art Nouveau architecture with decorative pilasters and a grand entrance featuring a clock frontispiece.
The savings bank opened in 1875 following a 75,000 pesetas legacy from Diego Fernando Montañés, enabling local workers to obtain low-interest loans.
The entrance hall displays two substantial religious paintings by Francisco Laporta, along with colored stained glass windows promoting the value of saving.
The structure contains four floors, occupying an entire block on Rigoberto Albors Street, and currently functions as a branch of Institut Valencià d'Art Modern.
The building combines Viennese Sezession movement elements with regional architectural features, including an imperial staircase adorned with arches and decorative columns.
