The current research tries to render information regarding the historical characteristics about two coat of arms made of polychromated wood, which were found out of his original location in the Town Hall of Toledo. It is probable that they belonged to the lost framework of the Assembly Hall in the high floor, although it is not an affirmation which pretends to be conclusive nor it is the main purpose of this article. After the repairings made during the past years, these coat of arms were found in the Town Hall premises, and were then stored by the Archivo Municipal de Toledo, organisation that has been in charge of its restoration. Once the restoration was completed, they were hanged again at the City Hall in a new emplacement.Downloads
