The Casa de Juntas is a Neoclassical building that was built between 1826 and 1833 under the leadership of the architect Antonio de Etxebarria. Before it was built, the sessions were held at the Santa María de la Antigua Hermitage, demolished to undertake the construction of the current building. Of note in the building are: The present day. Such important events as the swearing-in of the Lehendakari (President of the Basque Government) and of the Governor of the Regional Government of Bizkaia are held in the Assembly Hall and in front of the Tree. In this respect, on a nearby monolith, a plaque commemorates the words spoken in 1936 by José Antonio Aguirre to formalise his oath as the first Lehendakari, words El árbol de Guernica es el símbolo de las libertades vascas (vizcaínas). El árbol de Guernica (en euskera, Gernikako Arbola) es un roble (Quercus robur) situado delante de la Casa de Juntas en la localidad vizcaína de Guernica y Luno en el País Vasco, España.Este árbol simboliza el fuero, las libertades tradicionales de Vizcaya y los vizcaínos, y por extensión de todos los vascos.
