The Monument to Onésimo Redondo (Spanish: Monumento a Onésimo Redondo) was an instance of public art in Valladolid. A memorial to Onésimo Redondo, a Fascist politician who died in the beginning of the Spanish Civil War—the so-called "Caudillo of Castile", as he came to be named by the Francoist regime—the monument was removed in February 2016 on the basis of the enforcing of the Historical Memory Law.
