In 1908 the Spanish-French Exhibition was held in Zaragoza, in memory of the War of Independence, to unite both countries. For this event with more than 5,000 exhibitors, a site was prepared between Avenida Independencia and Huerva River. This is now Plaza de los Sitios, which contains striking buildings such as the Provincial Museum. In the middle of the square stands the Monument to the Sieges, by Agustin Querol (1908). It shows several characters, who defended the city during the two sieges: in 1808 and 1809.
