Message from Jaime & Carolina

Guernica, located in Spain's Basque Country, is a town rich in history and culture 🏰. Known for its significance in the Spanish Civil War, it's a place where past meets present in a vibrant tapestry of tradition and resilience.

Three best things to do in Guernica:

1. Visit the Peace Museum: 🕊️ Explore the history of peace and conflict resolution in this renowned museum, which commemorates the town's suffering during the Spanish Civil War and promotes a message of reconciliation.

2. Picnic at the Gernikako Arbola: 🌳 Enjoy a relaxing afternoon at the Gernikako Arbola, a symbolic oak tree under which the Basque people traditionally gathered for important meetings. It's a serene spot to soak in the town's atmosphere and reflect on its history.

3. Explore the Plaza de la Constitución: 🏛️ Wander around the historic Plaza de la Constitución, where you'll find the iconic Casa de Juntas (Assembly House) and the famous Guernica Oak Tree mural by Pablo Picasso. Immerse yourself in the town's cultural heritage and admire its artistic treasures.
