Memorial

Post by Wynette: This literally took my breath away when we read it. A small simple plaque on the trail leading into Porto do Barqueiro. It says “To the men and women who died in this place defending liberty and democracy of the second republic. 1936 – 1939”. Of course, that was the Spanish Civil War that ended with Franco’s 35 year dictatorship. I suppose there are memorials like this all over Spain.
