Description

Discover the hidden scars of Madrid and relive the dramatic story of the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939). From royal bombings to underground resistance, this tour reveals how the city lived, fought, and survived under fire. In a city with no plaques, no monuments, and no official museums about the war, uncover a past deliberately silenced. Walk through places where history was written and erased at the same time. Visit Calle Mayor, Puerta del Sol, Gran Vía, and Plaza de España, tracing the stories of Hemingway, Gerda Taro, spies, and ordinary Madrileños who endured hunger, fear, and the bombings of Hitler’s Condor Legion. End your tour at the Temple of Debod, where beauty and tragedy meet — the site of one of Madrid’s first battles. A powerful journey through memory and survival — perfect for history lovers and curious travelers who want to see what remains unseen.
