On January 15, 1631, Don Francisco Mantilla de los Ríos gathered the people to demarcate the lot and nail the first pillar of the hut that would serve as Government House. Under these conditions and with periodic repairs, he provided his services until 1740.
First reconstruction May 27, 1740.
Second reconstruction February 28, 1791. New improvement 1864.
Destruction of the old town hall and construction of the new one in 1929. There was a fire on August 31, 1977.
After the fire, the civic entities of Girón began a strong campaign to get the construction of the colonial-style town hall of 1864, since the town never agreed with the Republican palace style within a totally colonial square framework.
Close to the central square of Girón.
You can learn more and more history of this Municipality in this building that is nothing but a sample of colonial conservatism that you will surely be delighted to know.
Come willing to resolve the concerns you have about both current and past governments in the Town Hall.
