Los primeros mercados municipales construidos en Andalucía en el siglo XIX. Arquitectos y proyectos

Abstract

Most of the indoor food markets built in Andalusia and still standing today date back to the 19th century. However, there is no known comprehensive research on this type of architecture. This article aims, on the one hand, to analyse the original projects for food markets built in Andalusia in the 19th century found in different archives and, on the other hand, by means of several case studies, to contribute to the history of architecture by studying the protagonists and their works, characterised by all kinds of revivals, based on styles like the neoclassic to the neo-Mudejar, also materialised in iron architecture.
