Municipal Palace of Lima
City Hall faces Plaza Mayor from Jirón de la Unión. Stop for its civic facade; the marble and onyx hall is an interior feature to seek only if access is confirmed.
The Municipal Palace helps explain why Plaza Mayor remains a working civic space. Its current building followed a fire that destroyed the earlier city hall in 1923. Compare its twentieth-century facade with the other sides of the square before deciding whether an available interior visit merits extra time.
What to look for
The City Hall facade is part of the Plaza Mayor ensemble.
The Gran Hall has a marble and onyx staircase.
Useful to know
Include the exterior on a walk around Plaza Mayor.
