Discover the exhibition The Children's Reading Room: A Tribute to Culture During the Civil War at the Arxiu Històric de la Ciutat de Barcelona. After the Civil War, the Archive established a pioneering reading room for children affected by the conflict. Unfortunately, it was closed due to fascist bombings in Barcelona. This exhibition reveals the books and drawings that were preserved among the administrative documentation. This cultural initiative is a tribute to the children who suffered and continue to suffer the absurdity and inhumanity of war, showcasing how the Archive fought against this reality through culture.
