Barcelona a Prim, Memorial statue in Parc de la Ciutadella, Barcelona, Spain

Barcelona a Prim is a bronze equestrian statue in Parc de la Ciutadella, near the Barcelona Zoo entrance. The general wears military uniform and holds his cap in salute, sitting on a horse above a rectangular pedestal. Two relief panels on the pedestal depict the retreat from Mexico and the Battle of Castillejos.

The original was erected in 1887 but destroyed during the Spanish Civil War in 1936. Sculptor Frederic Marès created a replacement in 1948 that still stands today.

The pedestal reliefs depict the retreat from Mexico and the Battle of Castillejos, not the Convention of La Soledad. They show Prim's military feats with classical figures arranged in geometric compositions, with careful attention to individual detail.

The monument stands at the entrance to Barcelona Zoo, in the Parc de la Ciutadella. The nearest metro stop is Ciutadella-Vila Olímpica on line 4, a short walk from the park's edge. The statue is outdoors and can be seen at any time of day.

The equestrian bronze of the 1887 monument was cast at the Comas i Cia. foundry using metal from mortars taken at Montjuïc Castle. The 1936 destruction melted that bronze into ammunition for the war, so the present figure by Frederic Marès is a 1948 recasting.
