Monument als caiguts, Memorial monument at Montjuïc Castle, Barcelona, Spain
The monument features three arches, a central altar, a tomb with an obelisk, and a bronze sculpture measuring 0.60 x 2.15 x 1.13 meters.
Built in 1940 by architects Manuel Baldrich, Joaquim de Ros i Ramis, Josep Soteras, and Manuel de Solà-Morales, with sculptors Miquel and Llucià Oslé.
The monument underwent modifications in 1986 and 2008, reflecting changes in Spanish society through alterations to its inscriptions and symbols.
In 2023, authorities removed the monument from Santa Elena Moat, preserving only the fallen angel sculpture at the Barcelona History Museum.
The construction resulted from public fundraising that collected 180,000 pesetas, with contributions from Barcelona City Council and Provincial Council.
