Not far from Madrid there is the Valle de los Caidos. This site is still today the symbol of an unresolved conflict within Spanish society: under the cross lie thirty-five thousand victims of the Spanish Civil War, while approximately fifty children study in the nearby boarding school. They receive an education that desperately tries to resist the drift towards secularism and scientism of contemporary Spain and global society.
