O Amenal I, O Pino, A Coruña. (2016)

On 20 August 1936, Falangists ordered five municipal councillors from Boimorto to run down this hill to machine-gun them from the road. They were part of a group of 17 councillors who had been denounced by a parish priest. Two of them, Ramón Vázquez Garea and Ramón Sánchez Rapela, were shot in the back as they did so. Neighbours buried them and cared for the grave for decades, but due to changes in land use ‒ it is currently a plantation of eucalyptus ‒ the grave has been lost.
