Tour description

On this tour I will show you a period in Madrid's history that today goes unnoticed in the modern and cheerful capital of Spain, in which the city became one of the main battlefields of the Spanish Civil War. We will discover, on a walk between the Parque de la Montaña and the Parque del Oeste , an urban landscape with prisons, forts, trenches and shelters, and emblematic monuments and vestiges of the time.
Throughout the route we will reconstruct with images the great events of this war period, and also what daily life and the survival of the people of Madrid were like in those difficult times.
If you want to know everything about this very relevant period of our recent past, you can't miss my Free Tour of the Madrid of the Civil War!
