The Capitoline Wolf of Mérida is a replica of the one found in the Capitoline Museums in Rome. It was a gift from the Italian city to Mérida in 1997. This sculpture represents the founding of the Roman Empire and shows Romulus and Remus being breastfed by a wolf named Luperca. According to mythology, these two brothers were the ones who founded the city of Rome. The sculpture is located in a roundabout next to the door of the Arab Alcazaba, specifically in the Plaza de Roma, near the Roman Bridge.

The monument of the Roman she-wolf feeding Romulus and Remus, a symbol of ancient Rome, is located in the center of the roundabout, right next to the entrance to the Roman bridge. How could it be otherwise, in a city with so much Roman culture, the founding history of Rome had to be paid homage.
