==History==
Construction of the plaza began in 1729 and was completed in 1755.〔(Yahoo Travel )〕 Felipe the V ordered the construction of the plaza to be used for bullfighting and was designed by the Churriguera family in sandstone. It had been used for bullfighting up until the mid-19th century, one hundred years after being completed.〔〔(Bluffton.edu )〕
The construction began in two phases: the first was between 1729 and 1735 and the second was between 1750 and 1755. The first phase was built under the direction of Alberto Churriguera while the second phase was built under the direction of Manuel de Larra Churriguera, his nephew.〔 (La Plaza Mayor de Salamanca en el punto de mira )〕 Finally, Andrés Garcia de Quiñones built the City Hall.
