Gloriette of Cervantes, Ceramic monument in Parque de María Luisa, Spain
The Gloriette of Cervantes features octagonal architecture with four benches decorated with ceramic tiles depicting scenes from Don Quixote near Plaza de América.
The structure, designed by architect Aníbal González Álvarez-Ossorio, was constructed in 1913 as part of the broader development of Plaza de América.
Ceramic shelves display significant dates and locations from Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra's life, while tile benches illustrate Don Quixote narratives.
The monument underwent complete restoration in 2021, including the replacement of stolen statues of Don Quixote and Sancho Panza with new reproductions.
An Araucaria cunninghamii tree grows in the center of the monument, combining natural elements with the ceramic architectural structure.
