The Valle de los Caidos, in English: Valley of the Fallen, is a monumental memorial near Madrid It was conceived by Spanish dictator Franco to honour those who felt during the Spanish Civil War. However only two names are commemorated the one of the leader of the Spanish Fascist party Falange Española Jose Antonio Primo de Rivera and Franco himself. The monument is controversial due to how it was built (by political prisioners), and by who it was built (by Pedro Muguruza and Diego Mendez).
