Comment

Representative square of the cosmopolitan city of Melilla, in her they emphasize the bell tower of the Church of the Sacred Heart - neoorrománica work of Fernando Guerrero Stracham-, and the call House of the Reconquista, one of the best works of the Catalan modernist architect Enrique Nieto. Built in 1.915, it appears full of floral and feminine details with attractive viewpoints and towers with domes in the corners. Right in front of the main door of the Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, is the sculptural group of Miguel de Cervantes with his character, "El Quijote", a work sculpted in bronze by Juan Carlos Martínez.
