Once the Constitution of Cadiz was sworn in, one of the first agreements of the new town hall was the destruction of the pillory established in the middle and to call it Plaza de la Constitución. The Town Hall on December 18, 1826, agreed to place a plaque that reads: “Plaza de la Independencia. 1821”. From the disappearance of the original parish church and the roll for the sentenced, the square was a simple plain until the city became the capital of a new state of the republic when a garden with three turns and eight radial streets was built in 1869. A fountain known as “The Three Graces” was placed in the central roundabout. At the turn of the 19th century the park retained its perimeter fences and eight gates, although they were removed at the end of 1924. Previously, in 1914, a kiosk was built in the center of the town, which popular saying called “La Lata de Pan” (The Bread Tin), because of its similarity to the containers that are still used for the distribution and sale of bakery products. Years later, in the 1940s, a new design was implemented, replacing the kiosk with another fountain. Around 1965 another total intervention reshapes the space and radically changes its appearance. Finally, in the eighties, retaining the last line made, it was redefined with a railing similar to the original, demolishing the central platform to raise a recreation of the kiosk of time ago.
