Monumento a San Ignacio de Loyola, Pamplona, Bronze monument in Avenida San Ignacio, Pamplona, Spain

The bronze and stone sculpture measuring 170 x 202 x 116 centimeters depicts Saint Ignatius on a stretcher surrounded by two carriers and a soldier.

The monument commemorates the wounding of Saint Ignatius during the defense of Pamplona Castle against Castilian troops on May 20, 1521.

The statue marks the location where Saint Ignatius experienced the injury that led to his spiritual transformation and establishment of the Society of Jesus.

The current bronze version, installed in 2005, replaced an earlier stone sculpture that had suffered damage from repeated acts of vandalism.

The sculpture includes a kneeling dog next to Saint Ignatius and bears inscriptions identifying both the creator and the foundry workshop.
