Setas de Sevilla ("Mushrooms of Seville") or Las Setas ("The Mushrooms"), initially titled Metropol Parasol,[a] is a wooden structure located at La Encarnación square in the old quarter of Seville, Spain. It was designed by the German architect Jürgen Mayer and completed in April 2011.[4] It has dimensions of 150 by 70 metres (490 by 230 ft) and an approximate height of 26 metres (85 ft)[5] and claims to be the largest wooden structure in the world.[6] Its appearance, location, delays and cost overruns in construction resulted in much public controversy.
