Monument to Castelar

The idea of erecting a monument or a statue to the great Republican began in 1903 with the intention even to open a popular subscription to cover the costs of this work. However, nobody mentioned it again until January 1927, when the editor of "The Liberal", D. Luis Rojas claimed in a newspaper article "Castelar does'nt have a monument in Seville!". But it would have to wait another year to develop an enthusiasm for this politician and his sculpture. The sevillian newspaper opened a public subscription and began to set the chain leading to the construction of this monument.
