When you are standing at the alter, inside the Basilica of the Valle de los Caídos and look up, you will see this cross with Jesus Christ staring back down on you. Valley of the Fallen is Spain’s Civil War Memorial located just outside of Madrid and built into the Guadarrama Mountains. Read about this basilica and its many controversies and why it isn’t considered one of the treasures of traveling in Spain. http://treasuresoftraveling.com/valley-of-the-fallen-spain/ #TreasuresOfTraveling #ValleyOfTheFallen #Spain #España #TravelSpain #ValleDeLosCaídos #CivilWarMemorial #Europe #CivilWar #SpanishTreasures #Cross #FallenSoldiers #Basilica #WorldTraveler #GlobeTrotter #PassportStamps #TravelTheWorld #TheGlobeWanderer #TravelGram #FollowMeFarAway #GuysWhoTravel #GayTraveler #travelphotography #instatravel #travelblog #traveladdict #travelholic #TravelBug #TravelLife #Wanderlust (at Valle de los Caídos) https://www.instagram.com/p/B50nF-mANXU/?igshid=1r2e9tllqb20e

Today we uphold the values of the lnternational Brigades, the brave volunteers who risked their all to fight Fascism in Spain while Franco dispatched orders to massacre Spanish civilians, sending the Nazi Condor Legion, the CTV of Mussolini and the Moroccan troops to exterminate the resisting working class citizens who supported the Spanish Republic. While Franco ordered the bombardment of civilian targets and the national treasures at the Prado Museum, the lnternational Brigades endured terrible fighting conditions on what was to them foreign soil. When Franco admirers and fascist supporters fill their mouths with 'patriotism and national pride', remember who planned and executed the Spanish Holocaust. In memory of my good friends and comrades who served in the lnternational Brigades and who would have thoroughly enjoyed reading the news yesterday about Franco's impending exhumation. In memory of David Lomon, who was imprisoned and tortured by Franco's troops in Spain. In memory of Patricio Azcarate, who endured the trauma of the Battle of the Ebro at age 17 and would have cried with relief yesterday. Thinking of all our comrades who suffered the reprisals and lost their relatives in Spain or Mauthausen. Thinking of all the Spaniards with stolen identities thanks to Franco. Justice is about to be served at last. It is a drop in the ocean, but it is the beginning. The genocidal dictator who killed his own nationals and thousands of lnternational volunteers will finally leave his crazy mausoleum. VIVA LA REPUBLICA! VIVAN LAS BRIGADAS INTERNACIONALES! ❤💛💜 ✊🏼✊✊🏾😍 #acrossmadrid #weareantifascists #francocriminal #francorepression #memoriaantifascista #memoriahistorica #brigadasinternacionales #spanishcivilwar #antifascista #porfin #francofuera #francogenocida #spanishholocaust #internationalbrigades #antifascistpride #alwaysinourhearts #wearetherealdeal #wearenotneutral #bewareofneutrality #republicaespañola #vivalarepublica #valledeloscaidos #francoexhumation #valleyofthefallen #elvallesisetoca (at Madrid, Spain) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnsgN98F-u5/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=15fg07hs6o2ra

Madrid Tour Day 2: El Escorial and Valley of the Fallen. In short, today was Spanish history galore for me! Got to see the tomb and grave my two favourite Spanish history personalities: Philip II and Francisco Franco. Both separated by more than 300 years, but still just as fascinating. #valleyofthefallen #valledeloscaidos #franciscofranco #phillipii #elescorial #monumentos #madrid #spain #christiantravelblogger #lifestyleblogger #christianlifestyleblogger #disciple #kingdomofgod #matthew28 #allnations #beautiful #history #spanishcivilwar #historian #nclpostgrad (at Valle de los Caídos)
