The Monument to Christopher Columbus (Spanish: Monumento a Cristobal Colón) is a 10-feet-high statue by Salvatore Revelli dedicated to Christopher Columbus, located in the central pedestrian path of the second block of Paseo Colón, a street of the Historic Centre of Lima, Peru. Originally inaugurated in 1860 in what is now Rímac District, it was eventually moved to its current location in 1906.
As of 2026, the statues at the street's first two blocks, including that of Columbus, are currently located at the Park of the Exhibition since 2024 due to the ongoing underground construction works for Line 2 of the Lima and Callao Metro, which started in July of that year.
