The palace is an emblematic government building known for its neo-gothic and eclectic architecture, designed by Antonio Palacios Ramilo and Joaquín Otamendi. Construction began in 1907, and it officially opened in 1919. Originally serving as a postal and administrative headquarters, it now functions as the seat of the city administration and a cultural center.

Standing approximately 40 meters tall, the building is centrally located and holds the status of a National Monument. Its architectural significance lies in the combination of modernist and neo-gothic elements, making it a historic landmark within the urban fabric.

The palace is wheelchair accessible and continues to serve as a symbol of municipal governance and Madrid's historical progress. It is open to the public, offering insight into both the city's administrative operations and cultural programs.
