An unused corner of San Pedro Alcantara's Jorge Lorenzo Tejada park is set to be transformed into a €3.5 million public library, study space and event venue. Marbella Town Hall is undertaking the rehabilitation of the old amphitheatre, with construction expected to be completed in spring 2027. Mayor Angeles Muñoz visited the site alongside deputy mayor Javier Garcia, praising the investment as a much-needed service for residents.
The three-story library will cover 7,500 square metres and feature a study area on the lower floor, a library with separate sections for adults and children on the middle floor, and a flexible space for large events, educational and cultural activities on the top floor. Officials aim to have the study area ready before the final exams in 2027, ensuring quiet places for students to work.
The library is designed to be modern, accessible and welcoming to all ages, with storytelling sessions and reading activities planned for younger readers. The project hopes to replicate the success of the popular Fernando Alcala library in La Represa park.
