    Tips

    September 5, 2024

    The Chapel of Saint Margaret, located near the Ares Pass, served as a refuge in 1939 for men and women fleeing the violence of Franco's troops. This shelter, a few hundred meters from the border, saved many lives. In the text, Artur Bladé i Desumvila expresses his gratitude for this abandoned chapel, which offered protection during a difficult night, saving in particular about twenty wounded people, and allowing the organization of their transport in extremely precarious conditions.
