Description

This dataset, which includes 2,404 records, lists victims of the aerial and naval bombardment of Barcelona in the Spanish Civil War. It is taken from the appendix of the book Els bombardeigs de Barcelona durant la Guerra Civil (1936-1939) by Joan Villarroya i Font (Publicacions de l’Abadia de Montserrat, 1999. ISBN-978-84-8415-097-8). The data was extracted by the Datalab team of BTV (Barcelona Televisió) using OCR (optical character recognition) and restructured by matching the records to those published in the exhibition Barcelona Bombardejada organised by Memorial Democràtic (2008) and to those published by El cost humà de la Guerra Civil a Catalunya of the Centre d'Història Contemporània de Catalunya.
