This is the site of an old concentration and detention camp that in operation during the Spanish Civil War.The old industrial buidings have been demolished and a public park was built on top of it during the 90's.
Although hundreds of people were detained in this camp, and many never returned from it, there is not a single reminder of this in the place.
