Monument of Peace

The sculpture was elaborated with bullets, cast bronze and brass bushing. It was designed and assembled in honor of the peace accords by the sculptor Rubén Martínez. The hands of Christ of peace symbolize the recent reconciliation of right and left-wing politics of the country. We see this beautiful monument on the drive into San Salvador. Because it was made from melted bullets, it has a deep meaning to the people here.
