The Memorias de mi Plaza collection is an initiative of the Córdoba City Council's Department of the Environment, which requested the collaboration of the UNC's Faculty of Philosophy and Humanities through the Vice-Dean's Office and the Department of Extension. In this edition, we will learn about the history of Paseo Sobremonte, which originally included the bed of a small lake where people used to go boating from a dock; the Plaza de la Intendencia, where the monument in memory of those who fell in the Falklands War stands; and the Plaza Italia, with its tribute to the Italian community and its three gazebos symbolizing the most distinguished rivers crossing the cities.
