Monument to Aida de la Fuente

The monument to Aida de la Fuente is located in the parque de San Pedro de los Arcos in the city of Oviedo, Principado de Asturias, Spain. It is one of more than a hundred urban sculptures that adorn the streets of the Spanish city. The urban landscape of this city is decorated with sculptural works, generally commemorative monuments dedicated to figures of special relevance at first, and more purely artistic works since the end of the 20th century.

Made of bronze, the sculpture is the work of Félix Alonso Arena and dates from 1997. It was erected by popular subscription with the aim of remembering the Asturian Revolution of October 1934 in the well-known figure of Aida de la Fuente (1918-1934), popularly known as "la Rosa Roja".

The monument is a stone monolith that is crossed at mid-height by a block containing a relief map of Asturias and bears the legend "Revolución de octubre de 1934". This is completed by a bronze medallion with the face of Aida de la Fuente in relief.
