    The equestrian statue of Francisco Pizarro is located in Trujillo, a city in the Extremadura region, Spain. This imposing statue pays tribute to one of the illustrious residents of Trujillo: the conquistador Francisco Pizarro. The statue was created by American sculptor Charles Cary Rumsey (1879-1922). It is located in the Plaza Mayor of Trujillo, on a granite pedestal. Although not its original location, this statue is an important symbol in the city where Pizarro was born.

    The city of Trujillo, a town located about 50 km east of Cáceres, sits on a huge granite batholith, on the old road to Madrid.
    It is an important urban complex formed from different periods and architectural-urban mentalities, whose testimonies make it one of the most important towns in Extremadura, as far as architectural heritage is concerned.
