Carmen Hombre Ponzoa, a teacher in Spain, was imprisoned and later executed while pregnant, together with her husband. She belonged to the small Protestant minority.

The public image of Spain is damaged by the lack of response to the discrimination of pastors without a pension, explains the secretary general of the Spanish Evangelical Alliance.

A public television report shows the situation of pastors who have not been able to get their pensions because their work during the Franco regime was not recognised.

The film 'Protestants: the silenced history' tells how evangelicals were persecuted during the post-civil war years in the Barcelona area.

An investigation looks for the mass grave where Atilano Coco, a Spanish pastor murdered by Franco's military in 1936, might be buried.

Miguel Delibes’ last book, The Heretic (1998), is about the sixteenth century Reformation in Valladolid. Where did Delibes get his information? What was his relationship with Protestants? And what were his beliefs?

“This decision marks an end to the moral insult that the public glorification of a dictator constitutes”, said the President of Spain, Pedro Sánchez. Under Franco, evangelicals were isolated, silenced and incarcerated.

“Spain has a huge task ahead of generating a big social consensus” about recent history, evangelicals say.

The city of Terrassa dedicates a square to pastor Samuel Vila and his wife, highlighting his theological, literary, editorial and social work and their defense of religious freedom.

Spain is still coming to terms with the dictator’s legacy. “Our parents and grandparents resisted the political persecution and harassment”, recall evangelicals. Many were incarcereted.
