Sagrat Cor de Jesus, Monument in Ibiza Town, Spain

Sagrat Cor de Jesus is a 23-metre stone monument north of Ibiza Town, in the hamlet of Monte Cristo. A pedestal and pillar built by Joan Serra's Majorcan company support a 14-metre Christ statue carved by Valencian sculptor Antoni Sanjuan, with arms outstretched in a pose resembling Rio de Janeiro's Christ the Redeemer. The design was by architect Guillermo Moragues, with onsite work supervised by Ibizan master builder Joan Costa.

Completed on 12 October 1947, the memorial was built at the instruction of Antonio Cardona Riera, known as Frit, who later served as Bishop of Ibiza from 1950 to 1960. It thanks the local population for hiding him in these hills during the Spanish Civil War, after Ibiza's churches were set alight in summer 1936 and the island fell under FAI control.

The monument is known locally as Cor de Jesús and was built as thanks for the islanders who hid Bishop Antonio Cardona Riera, called Frit, in these hills during the Spanish Civil War. The 23-metre stone monument, with its 14-metre-shorter Christ than Rio's, is a landmark for the hamlet of Monte Cristo.

The monument can be reached by taking the EI-600 road from Ibiza Town toward Sant Antoni and turning right after the industrial zone. The site is easily accessible from town and offers parking for visitors.

The monument was inspired by the famous Christ statue in Rio de Janeiro and shares similar iconography with outstretched arms. This design made it a recognizable landmark visible from many directions across the island.
