Monumento a La Raza, Sevilla, Marble monument in María Luisa Park, Seville, Spain
The Monumento a La Raza stands along María Luisa Park near the north tower of Plaza de España, featuring inscribed verses from Rubén Darío's poem.
The monument was unveiled on October 12, 1929, during the Día de la Hispanidad celebrations as part of the Ibero-American Exposition held in Seville.
The structure displays an inscription in Spanish celebrating Hispanic heritage with words from the poem 'Salutación del optimista' by Nicaraguan poet Rubén Darío.
The Seville Urban Planning Management Agency conducted restoration work in 2018 to maintain the monument's structural integrity and appearance.
The initial proposal for this monument suggested a 100-meter concrete column in Triana with restaurants and viewing platforms, but Santiago Martínez designed this final version.
