Description
English: Virgen de la Almudena (Virgin of Almudena). Sculpted in limestone by Fernando Valero to replace the previous one destroyed during the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939). It was inaugurated on November 9th of 1941 at the rear wall of the Catedral de la Almudena in Madrid (Spain). Vaulted niche and plaque were made by the city council in 1831. In 2007, due to the construction works of the Museum of Royal Collections, the sculpture was moved, and the wall demolished.
