Monumento ABC

Photograph at the Monumento ABC Monument

Llaves de fe (Spanish for 'Keys of Faith') is a monument to Pope John Paul II (Spanish: Monumento al Papa Juan Pablo II) installed outside the Mexico City Metropolitan Cathedral in the historic center of Mexico City, Mexico. Sculpted by Francisco Cárdenas Martínez, it shows the Pope in vestments upon which the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe with hands clasped in prayer appears in high relief. The statue was cast with more than seven million keys donated by the population of Mexico, following an initiative by the conglomerate Grupo Salinas two years after John Paul II's death.
