Menhirs for Peace

Highlight • Monument

Group of twelve sculptures inaugurated in 2003 in the 'Campo de la Rata'. Created by the Galician sculptor Manolo Paz, they share a location with the historical shootings carried out by the Franco authorities at the beginning of the Spanish Civil War.

The set of menhir stones represent the family, the largest for the parents and the smallest for the children. On the other hand, they are strategically placed in the shape of a circle, specifically, two circles, one inside the other.
