Visit to the Palacio de Justicia of Écija

The Palacio de Justicia of Écija stands out prominently for housing a unique and valuable decoration inspired explicitly by the Alhambra in Granada. This building surprises even the residents themselves by merging judicial administrative functionality with an ornamental display of plasterwork and arches of clear Nasrid inspiration that break with the purely Baroque aesthetic predominant in the municipality.

Upon entering its central courtyard and hallways, which are open to the general public during office hours, the visitor can closely contemplate the fineness of its geometric details and careful decorative craftsmanship. It is an architectural secret of great local value that often goes unnoticed by those who pass through the central streets daily without stopping to look at its institutional interiors.

Access is free as it is an active public building, so one must respect judicial work and maintain civil behavior during the visit. It is located just a few meters from the main monumental sites, allowing for a quick cultural getaway any workday.
