In this roundabout, the Jaén City Council wanted to pay homage to the worthy body with a metal statue that represents a civil guard dressed in a cape, helping an injured man to get up.
This statue rusted with the first rains due to the lack of adequate coating for the weather. (Things that happen 🤷‍♂️)

A few years ago, Jaén City Council decided to pay tribute to the Civil Guard by creating a statue at the roundabout specifically designed for this purpose, on a major artery in the city. Today, this roundabout has considerably improved access to the neighborhood and, in turn, pays tribute to the Civil Guard, a national security force highly valued and esteemed by Spaniards.

This necessary roundabout was made to wait to redirect traffic towards the southern ring road, which connects with the Castle and the Parador de Turismo and in turn with the road that takes us to Villares de Jaén.
