The Araneta Monument is a life size replica of Gen. Juan A. Araneta on horseback.

 

It depicts the momentous event when the legendary hero was leading his troops armed only with nipa stalks and rolled sawali mats painted black; in an attack leading to the historic bluff that liberates Negros from Spanish Conquestadores in 1898.

 

Within the foundation of the said monument are the remains of the late gallant leader and hero of Bago.
