Although the town of Figueres was far removed from the front until the last months of the Spanish Civil War, the conflict affected it from the very beginning, changing its people’s everyday life and creating two irreconcilable sides. Irremediably, the town’s physiognomy was also transformed. We propose a guided visit for you to explore the history of those years during and after the war in the town, in which we will also include among the points to be visited the interior of the air-raid shelter in the Plaça del Gra.
