Survivors and relatives of victims of the Spanish Civil War attend a concert at El Palau de la Musica on July 18, 2016 in Barcelona, Spain. The biggest gathering of survivors of the Spanish Civil was celebrated today at the same concert hall where Pau Casals was rehearsing ahead of a concert when he was informed on the military coup across the country. He decided to perform the symphony No. 9 of Beethoven (Ode to Joy) in a empty hall instead of leaving the building. On July 18, 1936 a group of officers attempted to overthrow the left-wing Popular Front government, elected in February 1936 in a military coup. That date marks the beginning of the Spanish Civil War which it left 500,000 killed and 450,000 fled. (Photo by David Ramos/Getty Images)
