Plaça de Tetuan, Barcelona

The square is named after the 1860 Battle of Tétouan, the siege and occupation of the Moroccan city of Tetuan by general Joan Prim and Catalan volunteers.

[1] The square's central area contains the Doctor Robert monument by the sculptor Josep Llimona.

The monument was built in Plaça de la Universitat between 1904 and 1910, commissioned by mayor Lluís Domènech i Montaner.

The monument was dismantled in 1940 by the Francoist State and moved to Plaça de Tetuan in 1985.
