    The Monumento a Juan Sebastián de Elcano is an impressive monument located in the Glorieta de los Marineros. The monument was built to commemorate the first circumnavigation of the world, which was completed on September 8, 1522 with the return of the Nao Victoria under the command of Juan Sebastián de Elcano.

    The monument, created by the artist Antonio Cano in 1973, consists of several parts, including a pond with water jets that symbolize the sea and its movements, a wall with a world map and a bronze statue of Elcano. It commemorates the 250 men who set out from Seville on August 10, 1519 to travel around the world.
