Online resources about the bombing of Gernika If we turn the clock back 85 years, we can listen to the survivors of the bombing of Gernika and see the images of the destruction it caused. All of this brings us closer than ever to situations like those in Ukraine and other war-torn countries.
The bombing of Gernika 26 April 1937, Monday, market day. This is the beginning of almost all the accounts of the tragic bombing that destroyed the city and its people. It was a very important episode in the history of the Spanish Civil War as well as the precursor of the bombing of open cities and against the civilian population. That is why the Gernika Peace Museum presents this online material aimed at secondary and high school students, which seeks to encourage them to think critically about situations such as the bombing that unfortunately continue to be repeated today. Three characters (a cartoonist, a journalist and a survivor's relative) will carry out an investigation to find out more about the tragic bombing of Gernika. This material is available in the following languages:
