Town hall

It is located at one of the medieval entrances to the village

The town hall (casa consistorial) building manages to adapt to the slope of the terrain, creating two distinct urban spaces: one to the east, facing the church, with a covered passage connecting to the first floor of the town hall; and another to the south, in front of a small square where the "lonja" opens with its two round arches.

The market was held in the lonja, which made use of the adjoining "fresquera" accessible through a small door. In the 20th century, the arches were bricked up to house the schools.

The town hall also had a jail, accessed from beneath the chapel of San Roque; it consisted of two rooms: the first, more comfortable, for the guard, and the second, narrower, for the prisoner.

This building is in the Renaissance style and was constructed, like the other town halls in the comarca, between the late 16th century and early 17th century. An inscription bearing the date 1610 has been preserved, probably referring to its inauguration.

Like the town hall of Ráfales, that of Lledó is situated at one of the medieval entrances to the village, most likely the main one. The covered passage connects with the calle de San Roque, which leads into the area of the village where the oldest buildings stand, constructed by adapting to the slope of the hill.

The town hall of Lledó continues to house the municipal administration offices.
