A 20-metre-high sculpture by Burgos artist Cristino Díez will welcome visitors to the Villalonquéjar industrial estate from today at the roundabout in honour of Jesús Echevarrieta.
The sculpture by Cristino Díez was designed to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Villalonquéjar Industrial Park, and the company Estrumar, together with the company Gonvarri and Gabasa Norte, have selflessly made its manufacture and installation possible.

Jesús Echevarrieta did not like to talk about the Villalonquéjar industrial estate as much as he liked to talk about 'his' industrial estate. He did not do so in a possessive sense, nor to claim the position of governor of the industrial park, which was not the case. He referred to 'his' industrial estate as if it were his fourth child, as that place to which he had devoted more time than he probably devoted to anything else throughout his life.
