Fodor's Expert Review Refugio Museo de la Guerra Civil
Cartagena
Military Sight
Cartagena suffered through much aerial bombardment during the Spanish Civil War, since it was the base for most of the Republican fleet. For the safety of its citizens, shelters with a capacity of 5,500 were built into the sides of the Concepción Hill. At the museum, visitors today can see the conditions people had to endure during those harrowing days.
