Marbella commemorates the European Local Democracy Week with guided tours of the Town Hall

Today, the City Council held guided tours of the City Hall, as part of the European Week of Local Democracy events, aiming to bring the municipal institution closer to the citizens and to showcase its history, architecture, and the operation of public services.

The mayor, Ángeles Muñoz, and the Councilor for Citizen Participation, Enrique Rodríguez, attended the event, which featured two tour sessions, at 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM. The mayor, who addressed the residents, emphasized "the importance of opening the doors of the City Hall so that citizens can understand firsthand how their administration works and how decisions that directly affect their day-to-day lives are made."

"Our goal is for this visit to be an opportunity for transparency and participation to be felt in a real and close manner," stated Muñoz, who also highlighted "the history and heritage value" of the city hall building, constructed over four centuries ago. "Here, an artistic heritage is preserved that reminds us of our roots and is part of our identity," she emphasized.

During the tour, attendees were able to visit emblematic rooms of the building, such as the former Chapter House, now the Commission Room, or the Courtroom, currently known as the Fresco Hall.
