That castle was fascinating. It was a great experience seeing another medieval structure.

Statue remembering those fallen during the uprising of 1808 against the Napoleonic invasion of Spain

macedonboy 2019 Apr 25

The monument stands in tribute to the Spaniards who fought and died in the Dos de Mayo Uprising of 1808 against the French occupation during the Napoleonic Wars.

One of the nice features of this monument is that it shows an eagle, the symbol of the French Army, attempting and failing to wrest the Spanish flag from a Spanish soldier, an allegory to the ultimate failure of the occupation.

The monument is located just in front of the Alcazar and the ticket office. If you get the audio guide, there even a commentary about the monument.
