REFUGIOS DE LA GUERRA CIVIL

About Refugios de la guerra civil

Designed by local architect Guillermo Langle, they are considered one of the largest and most well-preserved air-raid shelters in Europe. Visitors can explore a section of these tunnels, which includes an operating room and living spaces, providing insight into the harsh conditions faced by the local population during the war. The guided tours through the dimly lit, reinforced concrete tunnels offer a poignant reminder of the war’s impact on the city and its residents. Today, the Refugios de la Guerra Civil serve as a powerful tribute to resilience and survival, allowing visitors to connect with a crucial chapter in Spain’s history.
