Parque del Oeste, Madrid. Civil War fortifications.

Parque del Oeste, Madrid. Civil War fortifications.
These formed part of the defences of Madrid against the Nationalists led by Franco. They held out for three years, Franco deciding in the end to abandon the siege and concentrate on winning the north of Spain, which won him the war eventually.

The fortification holds wonderful historical significance, but I cannot help but swoon over the beautiful dappled shadows of the forest there. So lovely!!
