The statue of the bear and the strawberry tree stands in Madrid's Puerta del Sol and has become the city's emblem. A bronze and stone work by sculptor Antonio Navarro Santafé, inaugurated in 1967, the bear pays homage to a brown bear hunted by King Alfonso XI on a mountain near the capital. The tree, on the other hand, symbolizes the dispute between the city council and the clergy of Madrid over the ownership of some land covered with strawberry trees. Interestingly, the bear appears to be trying to eat the leaves because at that time they were considered a good remedy against the plague.
