Almería Civil War Shelters Guided Visit

During the Spanish Civil War, Almería was bombed repeatedly from the air and the sea. In response, the city dug kilometres of tunnels beneath its streets, large enough to protect tens of thousands of residents. Part of this network has been restored and opened to visitors.

On the guided visit you walk through the galleries, see the operating theatre and the storerooms, and hear how families lived through the raids. Almería is about two hours from Granada, so the visit suits a day on the coast or a stop on the way east.
