Road Trips Through a Contested Past
Nick Lloyd, who leads a Spanish Civil War tour in Barcelona, sets out by road to see how the conflict is remembered, and forgotten, in the landscapes of today. His route centres on Catalonia and Aragon, among the last strongholds of the Republic, and continues across the border into France.
He visits battlefields, museums and memorials, including the preserved ruins of Belchite and resistance monuments in Huesca. He follows the story of Barcelona photographer Francesc Boix and the path of Republican refugees held in French camps. Conversations with historians, local guides and descendants of International Brigaders place each stop within Spain's continuing debate over historical memory.
