Chamber of Deputies of La Pampa

The Legislature of La Pampa was established after the National Territory of La Pampa became an official province of Argentina, under the name of "Eva Perón Province". The 1951 constituent assembly, which wrote and adopted the first constitution of Eva Perón Province, mandated the election of a provincial Chamber of Representatives, with 21 members elected in single-member constituencies which were designed especially for the legislative body. The chamber convened for the first time on 4 June 1953, in the municipal building of Santa Rosa. ==Seat==

The Chamber of Deputies convenes in the Centro Cívico complex, in the provincial capital of Santa Rosa. The governor's offices, as well as provincial courts and other government offices all have its headquarters in the Centro Cívico as well. The entire complex was designed by Italian-Argentine architect Clorindo Testa. The Chamber of Deputies building was completed in 1976, during the second stage of construction. The complex was designed in the brutalist style, with influences from Le Corbusier's 1953 Secretariat Building, in Chandigarh. In 2006, an annex for the Chamber of Deputies Library, also designed by Testa, was completed. ==References==
