Above photo - The room of columns is the first room you see in a visit to la Lonja.

There is an inscription written along the top of the wall of the room of columns. In the photo above, the inscription is seen as a dark band running along the top of the wall.

Above photo - the inscription on the wall of the room of columns is a testimony to the honesty of the merchants of La Lonja.

The soaring, twisting columns of this merchant and ornate ceiling of this trading hall were finished around 1498.

Photo left - the ribbed ceiling of the room of columns.
