In this square are three buildings considered World Heritage by UNESCO: the Cathedral, the Alcazar and the Indias General Archive who live in a strange architectural harmony as they do not have much in common, the Cathedral was built between the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries with a gothic style, Casa de la Lonja where the Archive is was built in the late sixteenth century and the Alcázar had several phases of construction that gave it characteristics of gothic and Mudejar style.
Junto ao Arquivo General está um pequeno monumento dedicado ao Triunfo, dizem que assinala o lugar onde terminou uma missa que se celebrava no interior da Catedral e que foi interrompida no dia do Terramoto de Lisboa em 1755, ao sentir a terra a tremer todos sairam á rua mas a cerimónia continuou. Do lado oposto e junto ás muralhas está outro monumento dedicado á Inmaculada Concepción ali colocado em 1918. É talvez a praça mais importante de Sevilha graças á grande concentração de monumentos de interesse, é também dela que se pode dar um passeio de charrete e conhecer a cidade de outra maneira.
By the General Archives there is a small monument dedicated to the Triumph (Triunfo),some say it marks the place where a Mass ended that was being celebrated inside the Cathedral but was interrupted on the day of the earthquake of Lisbon in 1755, when people felt the earth shaking everyone left to the street but the ceremony continued. On the opposite side and beneath the walls is another monument, dedicated to the Immaculate Conception placed there in 1918. It is perhaps the most important square in Seville thanks to the large concentration of monuments of interest, it is also where you can take a carriage ride and discover the city with a different touch.
