Cristo Rey (English: Christ the King) is a statue 26 meters tall located in the ''Cerro de los Cristales'' (Hill of the Crystals) in the village of Los Andes, west of the city of Cali, Valle del Cauca, Colombia. The hill is so named because of the large amount of quartz that could be collected in the surrounding area. On Sunday October 25, 1953, the statue was inaugurated at its summit an image of Christ in celebration of the fifty years following the end of the War of a Thousand Days. It is made of iron and concrete, with a mass of 464 tons and a height of 26 m, of which 5m belong to the pedestal.〔(Monument to Cristo Rey in Cali ) (Absolut Colombia)〕〔(Cristo Rey ) (Santiago de Cali County)〕〔(MONUMENT TO CRISTO REY ) (Santiago de Cali County)〕 ==History== The Jesuit priest José María Arteaga had commissioned the Palmiran artist Gerardo Navia Carvajal to build the statue, but he only made a model before abandoning the project.
