Cabildo Insular de Tenerife

In its first year the government transferred the offices to a building located at the intersection of the 25 de Julio Avenue and Numancia Street in the capital, Tinerfeña.

After ten years the first steps were taken to acquire land in the area of the Marítima Avenue and provide the corporation with a settled home.

Construction of the development project in that part of the city began in 1933 under the direction of engineer, José Luis Escario.

The building was completed in late 1940 and the offices of the Santa Cruz de Tenerife were quickly filled.

The building contains an interesting collection of art, which includes murals that adorn the entire Salón Noble, popularly called the "Sistine Chapel of the Canary Islands."
