Monumento al Encierro

The monument represents nineteen bronze figures, including six bulls, three driven cattle, and ten runners in motion along a simulated cobblestone path.

Rafael Huerta created the initial sculpture in 1994 with two runners and one bull, which was later expanded to its current size in 2007.

The sculpture captures the intensity of the Running of the Bulls tradition during the San Fermin festival, displaying runners' various positions and expressions.

The monument stands at the intersection of Avenida de Roncesvalles and Avenida Carlos III, measuring 11 meters in length and 4 meters in width.

One of the fallen runners depicted in the sculpture is a self-portrait of the artist Rafael Huerta, integrated discreetly into the composition.
