Resum
The Franciscan convent of Santa Marina was one of the most important in the city of Zamora. After its exclaustration in 1868, it passed into the hands of the State, although the monastery and its chapel followed different paths. The first hosted the headquarters of the Civil Government and the Finance delegation. The second, although it was temporarily used as a warehouse, was reopened to the parishioners, to finally be used to house the Zamora Museum. Over time, the building became obsolete due to the demand for space and lack of maintenance. Progressively, the institutions moved in order to tear down the convent and replace it with a new institutional building and a public square. The bureaucratic process between institutions in favor and against its demolition is analyzed here, as well as the origin and evolution of the resulting plaza with the changes up to the present time.
