The Dominican Republic observes the historical significance of the Restoration movement, which began on August 16, 1863, when citizens rose up against Spanish dominion to defend national sovereignty.

However, the physical infrastructure dedicated to this history faces severe neglect. The "Lengüeta de Fuego" structure at the Monumento de Capotillo, erected to honor the heroes of the Restoration, currently suffers from structural degradation, including visible cracks, water leaks, and signs of physical deterioration despite the flying of the national flag.
