Glorieta de las mujeres que luchan, Steel monument on Paseo de la Reforma, Mexico City
Glorieta de las mujeres que luchan is a steel sculpture on Paseo de la Reforma depicting a woman with her left fist raised. The approximately 2.3-meter-tall purple structure symbolizes resistance against violence against women.
The monument was installed in September 2021 after the Christopher Columbus statue was removed from this location in 2020. Feminist groups placed this artwork to highlight women's rights and gender-based violence issues.
The monument has become a key gathering place for feminist movements and attracts people who want to raise awareness about gender violence in Mexico. The purple steel structure embodies resistance and the struggle for women's rights in public space.
The location is accessible via Metro station Revolución on Line 2 or Metrobús station Glorieta de Colón on Line 7. The sculpture sits in a public plaza on a major street, making it easy to visit and view.
The pedestal displays names of victims and messages from families of missing women, creating a public memorial space. These personal inscriptions transform the sculpture into something more than artwork, making it a living tribute to those affected.
