The Fuente de Petróleos is a major monument and fountain in Mexico City connected with the national oil industry. It was created after the 1938 oil expropriation, one of the most important events in modern Mexican economic nationalism.

The monument is associated with sculptor Juan Fernando Olaguíbel and architect Vicente Mendiola. For study purposes, connect it with oil, national sovereignty, and the era of President Lázaro Cárdenas.
