Monumento a los Niños Héroes

At the entrance of the Parque Niños Héroes and next to the Military Field of Monterrey, is this magnificent sculpture that honors the cadets of the Military College, who gave their lives in defending Chapultepec Castle from the invading US troops. This work was made in 1987 by the sculptor Luis Sanguino, who in 1984 also made the sculptures found in the "Fountain of Life" or Fountain of Neptune, located in the Macroplaza. In 2004, this monument was restored to restore its beauty to the representation of that heroic deed, which is such an important cause for the nation.
