The Obelisco is a monument located in Guatemala City, Guatemala. It was built in 1935 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the birth of General Justo Rufino Barrios, a former president of Guatemala who is considered a national hero.
The monument stands at 75 meters (246 feet) tall and is made of concrete and iron. It is located in one of the busiest areas of the city, at the intersection of Avenida Reforma and Avenida Las Américas.
The Obelisco has become one of the most iconic landmarks of Guatemala City and serves as a popular gathering spot for celebrations and protests. It is also known for its impressive light display that illuminates the monument at night.
In recent years, the Obelisco has undergone renovations to improve its structural integrity and increase its accessibility for visitors.
