Towering Tribute: Monumento al Sagrado Corazón de Jesús

A towering tribute to the cardinal Segura and his brothers in rural Spain, the Monumento al Sagrado Corazón de Jesús features neomudejar and baroque elements.

Situated in San Juan de Aznalfarache, Spain, the Monumento al Sagrado Corazón de Jesús stands tall, serving as a notable tribute to the memory of the cardinal Segura and his brothers. Constructed in 1945, this 41-meter-tall structure features a mix of neomudejar and baroque elements. Atop the tower is an 8-meter statue of Jesus. The tower, perched in a semi-circular courtyard, offers access to the nearby Convent of the Salesas, the College of Santa Teresa de Jesús, the Chapel of the Perdón, the House of Ejercicios, and the Jardín de Betania with Hospedería.
