Cartagena Civil War Shelters Museum Ticket

Purchasing a ticket grants you access to a remarkable museum, which is devoted to lauding the memory and understanding of Cartagena's recent past. Throughout your exploration, you will uncover how Cartagena served as a crucial site and a key target for attacks during the Spanish Civil War.

The museum is housed within a tunnel on the hillside of Concepción. This location was among various shelters built amid the Spanish Civil War as a defensive measure against bombardments.

Your ticket allows you to wander through the exhibition halls and hear the stories of those who lived through these events. You will gain insights into how the defense strategies were implemented and the profound effects this conflict had on their daily lives. Additionally, an array of audiovisual materials featuring authentic images and sounds from this historical period will enhance your experience.
