The Postigo Market is an interesting regionalist-style building designed by Juan Talavera y Heredia around 1926. Today it houses the El Postigo Craft Market, where around twenty local artisan workshops sell their products.
The building occupies a small block between streets, so it adopts a triangular shape with chamfered corners. It has two floors, in addition to the basement, which are arranged around a central space covered by skylights that allow light to pass through.
On the outside, we find exposed pressed brick and on the second floor there is a concrete balustrade that surrounds the terrace. Its main façade is the one facing north (Arfe Street). As it is the shortest, the architect emphasises its importance by erecting a simple square-shaped viewing tower above it, also topped by a balustrade.
