Guernica: Symbol of Peace in the Basque Country

Photographic collection dedicated to Guernica (Gernika in Basque), a city in the Basque Country sadly known for the bombing of April 26, 1937 during the Spanish Civil War, immortalized in the famous painting by Pablo Picasso. The images document the rebuilt city: the Basque-style train station, the Peace Museum dedicated to historical memory and reconciliation, and the Gothic Church of Santa Maria la Antigua. Guernica today represents a universal symbol of peace.
