Caballito de La Lonja, Bronze and granite statue at Paseo de Echegaray y Caballero, Zaragoza, Spain
The Caballito de La Lonja stands as a life-sized horse sculpture featuring bronze construction with granite elements near the Ebro River waterfront.
The current bronze horse replaced a wooden version that existed from 1925 to 1978, where photographer Angel Cordero took portraits of children.
Francisco Rallo Lahoz created this sculpture in 1991 to preserve the memory of local photographers who captured moments with a wooden horse prop.
The statue remains accessible for photographs throughout the year, continuing its function as a meeting point between Don Jaime I Street and Echegaray.
Every February 3rd, during San Valero celebrations, local knitting groups decorate the horse statue with colorful yarn creations and ornaments.
