Fallen Angel Fountain Madrid
Madrid’s satanic statue
Andrea from Madrid
Despite many people believing this beautiful bronze statue of Lucifer being bounced from heaven to be the only statue of the Devil in the world, disappointingly, it isn't (I'll leave you to locate the others - there are 2 more just in Madrid!)
Wherever they are though, I seriously doubt they are as sexy as this one. Naked and bound by serpents for modesty's sake, he falls back, arm raised and mouth open in a cry of desperation.
The fact that spookily this fountain is exactly 666m above sea level is a (happy?) coincidence -- make sure you find it when you explore Parque el Retiro, won't you?
