The Espetero Statue is a tribute to the traditional art of grilling sardines in Málaga! 🐟🔥
It was inaugurated on June 12, 2006, and is located on the Antonio Banderas Promenade, near Misericordia Beach. The sculpture honors the Espeteros, who for centuries have grilled sardines on wooden skewers over an open fire, a culinary tradition deeply rooted in Málaga culture.
The statue was created by Machú Harras and is part of the monuments that represent various traditional trades in the city, such as the Cenachero (fish seller) and the Biznaguero (jasmine seller).
