El 脕ngel

Zona Rosa & Reforma


The symbol of Mexico City, known as 'El 脕ngel' (The Angel), this gilded Winged Victory on a 45m-high pillar was sculpted for the independence centennial of 1910. Inside the monument are the remains of Miguel Hidalgo, Jos茅 Mar铆a Morelos, Ignacio Allende and nine other notables. Thousands of people congregate around the monument on Independence Day, New Year's Eve, for victory celebrations following important Mexican 蹿煤迟产辞濒 matches, and occasional free concerts.

It's also a magnet for political demonstrations, and in August 2019 a protest against femicide ended in graffiti to El 脕ngel to draw attention to the problems of inequality in the country. The site remains boarded up for years-long repairs at the time of writing.
