Bon Dimarts de Núvols a Barcelona.

Obelisc del Cinc d’Oros (1930/1939)
Diagonal / Passeig de Gràcia, Barcelona

ENGLISH
The current square is known as the Cinc d'Oros due to the effect of the whole central roundabout and the four streetlights that illuminated it. The monument, initially dedicated to Pi i Margall, was designed by Adolf Florensa and Josep Vilaseca and was crowned by a sculpture by Josep Viladomat, a naked female figure, with her arm raised, holding a laurel bouquet, representing the Republic. It was inaugurated in 1936, two years after its construction. In 1939, after the Franco victory, the City Council removed the sculpture from the top of the obelisk and commissioned another from Frederic Marès, to be placed at the base. The imperial eagle with which the work was crowned was removed a few years later while the sculpture of Marès remained there until 2011. The monument remained as a bare obelisk, popularly called "the pencil".
