Monument to India Catalina

Monumento a la India Catalina

A bronze statue of an Indigenous girl outside the Old Town's Clock Tower. She is also the model for the trophy of the Cartagena International Film Festival.

Located outside the Clock Tower, at the junction leading to Getsemaní, this bronze statue honors Catalina, an Indigenous girl who worked as an interpreter for Spanish colonists in the 16th century. It was created in 1974 by Eduardo Ramírez Villamizar, and a small version of it serves as the trophy of the Cartagena International Film Festival. Admission is free. Pass by on foot and take a photo. The horse-carriage pickup point is right beside it.
