Monument to Paco de Lucena

Monument to Paco de Lucena

Opposite a historic church stands a work of art paying tribute to an influential flamenco guitarist. Be sure to visit the nearby parish church as well.
Set against the imposing façade of the Church of San Juan de Dios stands this work by the Lucena-born sculptor Francisco Javier del Espino, which pays tribute to the Lucena-born flamenco guitarist who marked a turning point in the genre. A visit to the parish church of Nuestra Señora del Carmen, located just before you reach this spot, is highly recommended.
