Monument in memory of gays, lesbians and retaliated transsexuals, LGBTQ+ memorial monument in Parc de la Ciutadella, Barcelona, Spain.

The monument features a triangular shape constructed from pink marble, measuring over 4 meters in height, located near the Marquès de l'Argentera Avenue entrance.

Inaugurated on March 21, 2011, this memorial emerged after significant discussions regarding its placement, initially proposed near Sagrada Familia but finally established in Ciutadella Park.

The inscription acknowledges the historical persecution of gay, lesbian, and transgender individuals, representing Barcelona's commitment to remembering and honoring these communities.

Visitors can locate the monument at coordinates 41.3861476, 2.1862733, within the northeast section of Parc de la Ciutadella, accessible through multiple park entrances.

The pink triangle design references the symbols used in Nazi concentration camps, transforming a mark of persecution into a statement of remembrance and dignity.
