San Rafael triumphal monument

Córdoba

The patron saint of Cordoba.


The city has built many monuments to San Rafael, but the most important of them is the one nearby the Mosque and the Triumphal Arch.

It was made by the sculptor Miguel Verdiguier, in thanks for saving the city from the plague. The statue stands on a cushioned pedestal surrounded by columns rising from a castle, which, in turn, stands on a mountain with images of saints. The whole monument is adorned with animal figures and representations of the bountifulness of Cordoba's soil.
