Marquis of Larios Monument, Bronze statue at Plaza de la Marina, Malaga, Spain

The Marquis of Larios Monument displays a bronze figure standing on a marble pedestal with detailed inscriptions about his contributions to Malaga.

The monument, inaugurated in 1896, commemorates Jose Larios y Larios, who influenced the industrial and commercial growth of Malaga in the 19th century.

The statue represents the connection between Malaga's economic development and the Larios family, who shaped the city's modern urban landscape.

Located at the entrance of the main street in central Malaga, the monument serves as a meeting point and orientation landmark for visitors.

During the 1931 riots, protesters threw the statue into the port waters, and it was temporarily replaced with a figure representing a Malaga worker.
