In 1617, the architect Juan Gómez de Mora was commissioned to establish uniformity for the buildings in this place, which for centuries has hosted popular celebrations, bullfights, beatifications, coronations and also some auto de fe.

Both Cibeles and Neptuno underwent restructuring and relocation processes at the end of the 19th century, finally occupying the center of the Cibeles and Cánovas del Castillo squares, respectively.
