The new Iloilo Provincial Capitol was built in 2006 after a 1998 fire of unknown origin severely damaged the Casa Real de Iloilo, the old capitol, destroying nearly half of the structure and leaving only the main building intact.

[1] The old capitol building has since been renovated and restored to its original design and now serves as a lobby and reception area for visiting guests and government dignitaries.

The centerpiece of the redevelopment project is the mural titled "Panaysayun sang Paranublion."

The two-meter by 15-meter mural, which depicts the rich culture and heritage of the province, was designed by architects Victor Jacinto, Ryan Angelo Braga, Kenneth Torre, and Jorge Cadiao Jr.
