To celebrate the end of World War II, sculptor and long time Wellfleet Summer resident,
Xavier Gonzalez created PEACE ANGEL and presented her to the Town in 1958. 
She was twelve feet long, fashioned from sheet aluminum which sadly melted in the 1960 fire that destroyed Town Hall. A small cut paper model, from which this drawing was made, is preserved at the Wellfleet Historical Society Museum on Main Street.
