Description:
This statue was built in 1973 to commemorate the farmers of the Catalan lands. As it's seen in the photo, the statue represents a couple of farmers. In first place we can see a man who is carrying a hoe and next to him a women carrying a basket full of fruit. 
To build the statue was used bronze which unfortunately has been wearing away along the years.
In 2011 the whole square was reformed and the Farmers statue was restored and garnished with colourful lights.
