The Angel of Independence, a 7-ton bronze sculpture covered in gold, was designed by architect Antonio Rivas Mercado

Designed by the architect Antonio Rivas Mercado, the Angel of Independence is the emblem of the city. The column measures 36 m. The corners of its base are occupied by statues symbolizing Law, Justice, War and Peace, as well as others representing Mexican heroes like Guerrero, Morelos, Mina and Bravo. The Angel, or Winged Victory, a 7-ton bronze sculpture covered in gold, crowns the Independence Column, which commemorates the 1810 battle for freedom.

Une colonne que l'on voit de loin
Dommage que l'ange perché sur la colonne dite de l'Indépendance ne puisse contempler que des embarras continus de circulation.Les voitures ne cherchent qu'à franchir au mieux le giratoire au centre de grandes avenues.

Cet ange apparait dans de nombreux films. Il est situé dans le quartier des affaires sur un rond point. Il peut se visiter

C'est dommage que le symbole de la ville soit situé en plein milieu d'un rond point, autant dire qu'il n'est pas facile de se garer pour l'admirer. Monument aux dimensions impressionnantes, rehaussé par une sculpture dorée

It is one of the main symbols of the city, it is a superb monument pays tribute to the Heroes of independence. The golden angel is splendid and the statues on the ground are beautifully carved.
