Caldes d'Estrac pays tribute to President Lluís Companys, executed on October 15, 1940. The event will take place at 7:00 PM at Esplanada Can Muntanyà, commemorating his figure and his relevance in the history of Catalonia.
Lluís Companys (1882-1940) served as President of the Generalitat de Catalunya between 1934 and 1940. He is remembered for his commitment to republicanism and Catalanism, becoming a symbol of political repression and democratic memory after being tried and executed by the Francoist dictatorship.
The City Council emphasizes the importance of preserving democratic memory and freedoms, advocating for a space of recognition for the victims of the dictatorship. The tribute will include a floral offering and speeches by local authorities and entities.
