Palacio de Congresos de Badajoz, the congressional palace, is the work of the architects José Selgas and Lucia Cano. Palacio Municipal houses the City Hall. The remains of the original City Hall building are in ruins. The current building dates to 1852, and the clock was added in 1889.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.turismobadajoz.es/phocadownload/folletos/plazas.pdf|title=Plazas|publisher=Turismobadajoz.es|access-date=14 July 2013|language=es|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130715045408/http://www.turismobadajoz.es/phocadownload/folletos/plazas.pdf|archive-date=July 15, 2013|url-status=dead|df=mdy-all}}</ref> In 1937, the municipal architect, Rodolfo Martinez, renovated the building, with particular emphasis on stylistic uniformity, expanding its towers and changing its decorative elements. It features a balustrade, a central balcony and columns.

Badajoz has several municipal libraries serving the city and wider province, including the Biblioteca Pública Municipal A.
