El Ángel Caído



Of all the monuments in the Parque del Buen Retiro, perhaps one of the most interesting is the statue of El Ángel Caído (the Fallen Angel, aka Lucifer).

Madrid is one of the few cities in the world with a statue to the devil, which is quite odd considering the cultural influence of Catholicism in Spain....
