Pamplona City Hall
Casa Consistorial de Pamplona
A Baroque city hall whose balcony launches the opening rocket of the San Fermín festival, where crowds in white and red celebrate.
This 18th-century Baroque city hall features statues on its facade symbolising prudence and justice, along with the city's coat of arms. Every year at noon on 6 July, a 'Chupinazo' rocket is fired from the balcony to open the San Fermín festival, and the square fills with crowds in white shirts and red neckerchiefs waving handkerchiefs and spraying red wine. It is the most electrifying moment of the whole city. At midnight on 14 July, the festival closes here with the singing of 'Pobre de mí'. The building can be admired from outside at any time, and the small square in front is also a point on the running of the bulls route.
