Statues about Juan Ramón Jiménez and his literature in Moguer

The collection consists of sculptures scattered throughout Moguer that depict elements from Juan Ramón Jiménez's literary works and personal life. These installations blend visual art with poetry and create a route through the town that simultaneously traces the writer's creative journey.

The installation was established in 2014 by the municipal government to commemorate Juan Ramón Jiménez, who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1956. The project arose from the desire to honor one of Spain's most significant writers through monuments in his hometown.

The statues depict scenes and characters from the poet's works distributed throughout the town's public spaces. Visitors walking through Moguer can discover these literary references and understand the themes that mattered most to Jiménez.

The route is free and accessible at any time, as the sculptures are placed throughout public squares and streets. Visitors can walk at their own pace and discover the works without adhering to fixed schedules or admission systems.

Each sculpture includes informational panels that connect the artwork to specific passages from Jiménez's poems and biographical moments. These details allow visitors to compare the artistic interpretation directly with the poet's original words.
