Recently, the Manzana de las Luces began the exhibition "200 years of the Hall of Representatives", exhibition that covers the two centuries of existence of this historic space that witnessed the May Revolution, presidential oaths and debates, among other milestones.

The exhibition, which can be visited from Wednesday to Sunday from 11 a 20 hours (including holidays), covers the two centuries of existence of the place where the Board of Representatives of the Province of Buenos Aires met on May 1, 1822.

According to the director of the Manzana de las Luces, Gustavo Blazquez, This new proposal was organized "together with the Historical Research Institute of the Apple, which is carrying out a series of talks on the different bicentennials and here we are facing the presence of a bicentennial, which is the bicentennial of the inauguration of the House of Representatives, a fundamental building in the political history of the province of Buenos Aires and in national history”.

On the other hand he added: “It is really a very interesting transformation process to leave the council form, the rectangular table, the chapter house and be able to move on to this model more associated with the Republic, more associated with the ideas of the French Revolution and more associated with this architecture that is not without a certain form of optical pan, where everything is visible in the Hall of Representatives”.

In this way "the room served as the scene of multiple fundamental discussions in the national history, we know that the pension to María Remedios del Valle was discussed and granted in that room, presidents like Rivadavia were also sworn in in that room, Sarmiento, Mitre. In that room there were constitutional conventions, the legislative bodies of the province and also of the nation passed through there”, Blazquez concluded.

Meanwhile, the president of the Historical Research Institute of the Manzana de las Luces, José Selles Martínez, stressed that "the investigation into the House of Representatives is not closed, there are many things that we still have to keep looking at”. “Remains of the walls were found and there are a series of materials that we are working to rescue., part of them are in the Institute of American Art at the University of Buenos Aires; queremos tener copias para generar una especie de museo de las cosas que no están en la sala pero que fueron de la sala”, projection.

Building, built on the dungeons of the rebels and rebels of Oruro, witnessed the republican impetus brought by the May Revolution, of presidential oaths, murders, discussions and master classes.
