The Monument to Christopher Columbus (Spanish: Monumento a Colón), on a major traffic roundabout along Mexico City's Paseo de la Reforma, was dedicated in 1877. The statue was removed on 10 October 2020 "for restoration purposes" two days before a planned protest. On 12 October 2021, it was announced that the statue would be replaced with The Young Woman of Amajac, a sculpture of an indigenous Huastec woman.
