Sculptural work that honors all the miners of Almadén and the region, chosen by popular subscription and made by Leovigildo Gallardo Blanco from Almaden.
The Monument to the Miner represents the history of more than two thousand years, the hard and sacrificial work of the miner and the history of a people; the rebellion against the exploitation of man for a miserable salary and the testimony of a region that jointly achieved the objectives it set itself. Opened in 1996.

It is a tribute to the miners who worked in the Almadén mercury mines, protagonists of more than 2,000 years of mining history.
The idea arose in 1953, but it did not materialize until 1996, thanks to a public subscription and institutional contributions.
It was inaugurated on September 8, 1996, coinciding with the feast day of Our Lady of the Mines.
