Statua del Redentore, Bronze statue on Mount Ortobene, Italy
The Statua del Redentore stands 4 meters tall at an elevation of 925 meters, overlooking the city of Nuoro from Mount Ortobene.
Sculptor Vincenzo Jerace created this bronze statue in 1901 following Pope Leo XIII's request to erect Christ the Redeemer monuments across Italian regions.
On August 29th each year, the statue becomes the center of a celebration featuring traditional Sardinian songs, dances, and costumes.
The monument underwent structural restoration in 2012 after enduring 111 years of exposure to mountain weather conditions.
Behind the right foot of Christ, the sculptor integrated a child's face to represent humanity's relationship with divinity.
