Monumento al Toro

Monumento al Toro is a bronze sculpture in Plaza de Armas in Osorno that depicts a bull. The figure rests on a base made of vitrified stone tiles and commands attention through its substantial size and presence in the plaza.

This monument resulted from a selection process among 25 submitted designs and was built during the early 2000s. Its creation reflected the desire to make the region's agricultural importance permanently visible.

This sculpture embodies the identity of the region, whose economy relies heavily on livestock farming. The bull's depiction shows how deeply cattle raising shapes the way people here work and live.

This monument sits on the main plaza in Osorno and is easy to reach on foot. A lighting system allows you to view and photograph the sculpture comfortably during evening hours.

Metal letters engraved at the base of the monument display the regional motto 'Land of meat, homeland of milk.' This inscription shows how deeply agricultural identity is woven into the everyday life of the city.
