Peace Dove, Metal sculpture at Zurriola Beach, Spain.
The Peace Dove features a metal bird with extended wings measuring 9 meters wide and 7 meters tall, standing against the Cantabrian Sea backdrop.
Created in 1980 by Nestor Basterretxea, the sculpture emerged from his experiences during exile and reflects his stance against violence in the Basque region.
The monument represents San Sebastian's commitment to peace through public art, joining other waterfront installations that form an outdoor sculpture collection.
Located at the eastern end of Zurriola Beach, the Peace Dove stands near the Sagües area and can be reached via the coastal promenade.
The sculpture incorporates industrial materials specifically chosen to endure the strong winds and salt spray from the Cantabrian Sea.
