    It was designed by the American sculptor Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney and donated to Spain by the United States in 1929. The sculpture, in Cubist style and inspired by Egypt, is 37 metres high and represents a Franciscan friar from the Monastery of La Rábida. This friar welcomed Christopher Columbus while he was planning his first voyage and awaiting confirmation of funding from the Spanish monarchs. The pedestal of the monument includes reliefs depicting Mayan, Aztec, Inca and Christian elements.

      This beautiful place marks the confluence of the Odiel rivers with the Tinto to continue together under the name of the Ría de Huelva. It was chosen to place the monument to the Discovery Faith, a commemorative sculpture to Christopher Columbus. It is also a beautiful panoramic point to appreciate the landscape of the Huelva marshes.
