Bunkers Spanish Civil War Parque del Oeste

Of the original twenty, three identical bunkers that were part of the Fortines de la Guerra Civil Española del Parque del Oeste remain. Built in 1938 during the Spanish Civil War, they were part of the Nationalist defenses in the Parque del Oeste that formed the front line in the battle for Madrid. They provided space for two machine gun emplacements. The park was completely destroyed during the years of fighting and subsequently dug out more than 1.5 meters.
