    The English writer and journalist George Orwell participated as a volunteer of the Republic in the Monegros front. Following his story, trenches, bunkers and other elements that remained in the arid lands of the Aragonese steppe have been recovered. From here you can access a hill with a trench where the writer was, from which you can see the towers of Pilar de Zaragoza.
