Beautiful tribute to Jaén as the world capital of olive oil.
It is located at a roundabout on the Carretera de Córdoba Valencia, which leads into the city of Jaén from the west, just in front of the fire department. It contains elements that indicate the fact that the city of Jaén is considered "World Capital of Olive Oil" as stated in its main motto. In addition to that text we can see a partial terrestrial globe (a little less than half), a compass rose (which is not easily seen because it is on the ground), a large letter J and the rest of the letters that make up the word Jaen. Some decades-old olive trees were also planted.

The Jaén City Council wanted to honor the city by building a roundabout with a monument where the world capital in the production of olive oil was recorded 🫒.

On the monument there was a large coat of arms of the city, very nice by the way, but vandalism wanted some friend of others to unscrew it from its support and take it away forever, because the City Council has never bothered to replace it again!
