Write a reviewEl Monumento a Manolete, situado en la Plaza del Conde de Priego en el centro histórico de Córdoba, es un homenaje al torero más emblemático de la ciudad y una de las figuras más destacadas de la historia del toreo en España. Este monumento, inaugurado en 1951, representa la admiración y el respeto que la sociedad cordobesa siente por Manuel Rodríguez Sánchez, conocido artísticamente como Manolete. La escultura, obra del escultor Juan de Ávalos, captura la imagen de Manolete en plena faena, transmitiendo la elegancia y la concentración que caracterizaban sus actuaciones en la plaza. La ubicación del monumento en una de las plazas más transitadas de Córdoba permite que tanto locales como turistas rindan homenaje a esta figura legendaria del toreo. Visitar el Monumento a Manolete es una oportunidad para profundizar en la rica tradición taurina de Córdoba y recordar a uno de sus hijos más ilustres. Además, su proximidad a otros puntos de interés histórico y cultural de la ciudad lo convierte en una parada obligatoria para quienes deseen conocer más sobre la identidad y el patrimonio de Córdoba.
