Jose Rizal Monument, National monument in Daet, Philippines.
The three-tiered stone pylon features a square base supporting two triangular stages, measuring approximately 20 feet in height at Rizal Park.
The monument was constructed in December 1898, two years after Jose Rizal's execution, making it the first memorial dedicated to the national hero.
The structure displays inscriptions of Rizal's literary works, including Noli Me Tangere, El Filibusterismo, and Morga on its podium surfaces.
Visitors can access the monument at the intersection of Justo Lukban and J.P. Rizal Streets, where regular commemorative events take place.
An eight-ray sun adorns the top of the monument, while three golden stars in bas-relief decorate each side of the middle section.
