Monumento a los Caídos, Memorial building in Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Spain.

The Monument to the Fallen stands as a large stone structure with vertical lines reaching toward the sky near Plaza de España.

The monument integrates traditional Spanish architectural elements with military symbolism, representing a period of national remembrance in Tenerife.

The memorial opens daily to visitors and provides interpretive panels explaining the historical context of the Spanish Civil War period.
