The last known fatality of the Spanish Civil War in Torelló was a republican soldier. A boy between 25 and 30 years old who, after being shot by Franco’s troops on the night of February 4, 1939, was found the next day lifeless in the area known as El Puig.
Following the orders of the local Francoist authorities, the soldier was buried on the edge of the place where he had been killed.
The traumatic repression of the Franco dictatorship, in the first instance, and the inevitable passage of time, condemned “The Puig soldier” to oblivion for almost eighty years.
