Memorial Vitoria Tour of the Victims of Terrorism
Overview of the tour in Vitoria
I propose a tour of the most recent history. The Memorial Center for the Victims of Terrorism opened its doors with the aim of preserving and disseminating the democratic and ethical values that the victims of terrorism embody, building the collective memory of the victims and raising awareness among the population as a whole for the defense of freedom and human rights, and against terrorism.
We begin the visit at the door of the Memorial. An hour and a half journey through the history of terrorism in Spain in the 20th century. We are facing the second largest memorial dedicated to the Victims of Terrorism in the world. 700 m2 divided into 6 rooms.
We will talk about the beginnings of ETA, going through the massacre of the Rolando cafeteria, the GRAPO, the GAL, the 11-M. or the attack on the Ramblas.
In the Memorial, we will see the hideout of José Antonio Ortega Lara who spent 532 days kidnapped by ETA, the skateboard of a young man from Madrid, Ignacio Echevarría who confronted the Jihadists on London Bridge and numerous objects such as sticky bombs, terrorist tokens and videos of the victims.
