The Monument to Human Rights was built by Mariano González Beltrán on behalf of the regional government to commemorate the centenary of La Verdad. Mariano González Beltrán, born in 1948 in the Javalí Nuevo district of Murcia, is one of the most important contemporary regional artists with the greatest national and international influence on the national artistic scene. Mariano González Beltrán’s professional career has been marked by several milestones in recent years, including two of the most impressive and ambitious monumental complexes ever created by an artist from the region: the Monument to Human Rights, located at the headquarters of the Council of Europe in Strasbourg, and the sculpture of the same name in the Plaza de Santo Domingo in Murcia. González Beltrán is a sculptor who makes the region visible far beyond its borders. He has made many works of him that are distributed all over the world and can be found in some of the best art galleries, especially in the United States. One of his most recent works is the sculpture 'Murcia to Salzillo'. A work in the Plaza San Agustín in Murcia, in honor of the Murcian sculptor Francisco Salzillo, in honor of his three hundredth birthday last year. He also made an Icarus for the town of Aguilas, a symbol of the carnival, which is located on the Paseo del Puerto in this coastal town.

A beautiful park along the river. Beautiful trees, flowers and nice playgrounds

Murcia is a charming city in southeastern Spain, known for its rich history, vibrant culture and delicious cuisine.

Murcia, a city of Moorish origin, located on a flat plain surrounded by a mountain range, is closely linked to the fertile plain of the Segura. The tower of the cathedral, one of the city's symbols, rises from its historic guild streets. Although the region of Murcia has been inhabited for more than 2,000 years, the city of Murcia was not founded until 831, when the Emir of Cordoba, Abd ar-Rahman II, ordered the construction of a walled city on the banks of the Segura and made it the capital of the caliphal province.

In the 19th century, the building suffered two major fires (1877 and 1899), leaving only the walls standing. The reconstruction work after the fires and the major renovation in 1985 led to this monumental theater being inaugurated up to four times.

Built in 1902, the façade of the building facing Trapería Street is the work of the Murcian architect Pedro Cerdán Martínez, who designed, among other notable buildings, the Verónicas Market in Murcia, the Casa del Piñón in La Unión and the Casa del Clock in San Pedro del Pinatar. The style is eclectic, with modernist and historicist influences.
