The mission of this museum is to make the history and legacies of the Spanish Civil War, both as an internal conflict and its international repercussions, available to the general public. It also aims to preserve the memory of those who experienced the war or suffered its consequences www.vscw.ca/en

I recently joined as a contributor to the Virtual Museum of the Spanish Civil War. I am very grateful for the opportunity to share this story about Salamanca's Plaza Mayor and look forward to writing more entries.
