Santiago Town Hall, Town hall at Plaza de Armas, Chile.
The municipal building presents neoclassical architecture with arched windows, a continuous balcony, and a central tower overlooking the main square of Santiago.
The first structure on this site was built in 1578 as the city council and colonial prison, later reconstructed by architect Joaquín Toesca between 1785 and 1790.
The building displays the city's coat of arms, granted by King Charles V in 1552, representing Santiago's establishment as a major urban center.
The municipal offices inside the building provide administrative services to residents, with public access through the entrance on Monjitas Street.
The underground level contains vaulted chambers that remain from the original colonial structure, preserving elements of Santiago's early architectural history.
