About 100 m (330 ft) north-northwest of the monument is the exact location where Rizal was executed, marked by life-size dioramas depicting his final moments. The landmark is the most recognizable monument in Luneta. The Rizal Monument holds significant national heritage for Filipinos, commemorating the heroic acts of Jose Rizal for his country.
The monument, designed by Filipino sculptor Toym Imao, is located within the Laguna Sports Complex in Barangay San Juan. It depicts Rizal as a sportsman in fencing attire and holding a foil. Although reported to be the tallest Jose Rizal monument in the world, the Rizal Monument in Manila remains the tallest as its height includes its obelisk.
The monument was cited as the tallest Rizal monument in the world before former Laguna Governor Jeorge 'E.R.' Ejercito Estregan inaugurated a 26 feet bronze Rizal Monument sculpted by Toym Imao, son of National Artist for Sculpture Abdulmari Asia Imao in Santa Cruz, Laguna, for the 2014 Palarong Pambansa hosted by the province.
