Fo this purpose, field research was used as a methodology, in order to carry out an analysis on the dynamics that the square exercises as an urban form that expresses functionality in the context of the town. By analyzing the research, it was found that the square has a social function on a daily basis, since it has become a meeting place and cultural manifestations.
