SPANIARDS IN MAUTHAUSEN: ALMERIA MEMORIAL
The fate of the Spanish Jews as well as of tens of thousands of Spanish refugees is generally omitted in the historical narration of WWII. It took me two years to visit Almeria and its ‘Monumento a las Víctimas Almerienses de Mauthausen’ after a journey to Mauthausen in 2017 and another three years to research and write about it and share it now in 2023. This exhaustingly detailed material is based on dozens of books on the Holocaust, Mauthausen, and the Spanish Civil War, the Vichy regime in France, Franco’s biographies, and personal testimonies of the Spanish survivors of the genocide.
If you appreciate this article and my research, please share it with others, leave comments and feedback, and let us remember the history and people before us.
