Town Hall of Lezo

Construction of the Lezo Town Hall or Casa Concejil ended in 1742. This said there had previously been another building on the site. In the mid-18th Century, this building had a prison, archive, infirmary, meeting room, bar (rented) and armoury (containing at least 25 guns with their bayonets).

To pay for the work, the council took out a number of loans: one for 450 silver ducats in favour of the ecclesiastical chapter in Errenteria, and the same year another 200 in favour of the Augustinian Convent in Errenteria. These loans were not redeemed until the 19th Century.
