A stone cross inspired by Friar Diego José de Cádiz, Cristo de los Faroles is located in Córdoba's most attractive square. The monument is protected by a small fence surrounded by lanterns, which earned it the nickname of "Christ of the Lanterns." When the lanterns are lit the shadow of the cross casts an ephemeral outline on the buildings that backdrop it.

It is in the plaza of the Capuchins, one pretty square all paved, seeing him invites to meditation, to the fervor, surrounded by eight lanterns that illuminate at dusk, the bottom is filled with candles and flowers, highly recommended a visit.View original

Understand that this place was (and is) meant to be a place where believers could go to pray when troubled at any time of the day and especially the night including very early morning when the churches are closed. It means a lot to the local people and its not a "tourist" destination - anything but!
