Sculpted in bronze, a pack of dogs seems frozen in time. They stand here at the Monumento al podenco Ibicenco, a testament to the island’s beloved Ibizan Hound. This isn’t just any dog breed. The Ibizan Hound holds a special place in the heart of Ibiza. This monument, found at the entrance to Ibiza’s seafront promenade, celebrates that bond between island and animal. Created by sculptor Andreu Moreno and unveiled in 2010, the Monumento al podenco Ibicenco captures the essence of these graceful creatures. Five hounds, originally planned as seven, are depicted in lifelike poses. Two appear playful, their bodies intertwined. One sits serenely, while another stands tall, a puppy nursing at her side. These bronze hounds are more than just static figures. They embody the spirit of the Ibizan Hound. Known for their hunting prowess, these dogs have been an integral part of Ibizan life for centuries. The sculptor has masterfully captured their elegance and spirit, making the Monumento al podenco Ibicenco a must-see for any visitor to this beautiful island.
