Highlights
  • Refugios de la Guerra Civil Española de Almería - Discover the historical shelters from the Spanish Civil War in Almería. Explore the extensive 4.5-kilometer network of subterranean passageways created to protect up to 40,000 individuals during air raids.

This guided tour allows you to traverse nearly one kilometer of these tunnels, where a knowledgeable guide will reveal the significant history and fascinating stories concealed within this extraordinary site.

The journey commences with an introductory video that sets the stage for the visit. As you proceed, the guide will lead you through the depths, where you’ll get to see a makeshift hospital complete with a surgery room, a private chamber, and even children’s artwork adorning the walls.

Venture 9 meters below the surface, or for the more daring, delve 16 meters to uncover a former food storage area.

This is a singular and memorable adventure that’s not to be overlooked.

Interesting but definitely need to be fluent in Spanish as no information given in other languages. - A short video at the start gives people’s account of what it was like in Almeria during the Civil War. Subtitles in English. The tour itself is all in Spanish - I know there were various nationalities there and even just a sheet of info would have helped give us a little bit more understanding for those of us that are not fluent.
