History

Convent of San Agustín

The city hall and the plaza were built in the location of the former convent of San Agustín, located on the banks of the estuary.[1] The convent was destroyed during the First Carlist War and demolished the following years. In 1883, the government authorized the Bilbao City Council to use the location to build a new city hall, the council was previously based in Old Town.[2]

The plaza was formerly known as Primo de Rivera plaza, its name was changed to Ernesto Erkoreka plaza on 4 June 1980, after Ernesto Erkoreka, former mayor of Bilbao and republican politician.[1]
