It is located on the Giralda. Across the top of the tower stands the Giraldillo, which has given its name to the Giralda tower by extension. Despite the fact that its original name was Triumph of the Victorious Faith, it began to be called Giralda (what does it mean “Which turns”) and ended up giving the entire monument its name.

El Giraldillo, which acts as a weather vane on top of the Giralda, It was, when it was built in1568 and for several centuries, the largest bronze sculpture of the Renaissance. Represents a woman in a robe with a palm in one hand and a large warrior shield in the other.
