In the central Plaza del Socorro there is also a statue of a half-naked man with two lions at his side and some columns behind him. The statue is Hercules. He is holding two lions. The coat of arms, flag and symbols of Andalusia were designed by Blas Infante.

This square, like most of them, aims to offer the walker a dimension of spaciousness and at the same time of rest, where they can sit and enjoy it.

The statue of Hercules with the lions and under the flag of Andalusia symbolizes power and strength.

The figure of the mythical hero Heracles stands between the two pillars of Heracles. He wears the fur of the Nemean lion around his shoulders and hips as a cloak. He is accompanied on the right and left by two golden lions, the (heraldic) right one in a crouched position, the (heraldic) left one in a defensive position. The pillars are bridged by an arch in the Andalusian colors of green-white-green, with the Latin motto in gold inscription: "DOMINATOR HERCULES FUNDATOR" (German: "Ruler Hercules the Founder").
