Queralt Solé: La Sexta Columna: “The Paradox of the Valley of the Fallen”
/0 Comments
The topic of the TV programme “La Sexta Columna” on Friday, June 3, 2016, was the Valley of the Fallen, and included Queralt Solé’s participation.


“The paradox of the Valley of the Fallen: after 40 years of democracy, it is still impossible to exhume the human remains


Since 1980, no one has managed to take a bone out of the Valley of the Fallen. Only six years after Franco’s death, it was possible. 40 years of democracy later, it is no longer possible. How can we explain this change?”
