Abstract

In this paper we report the results of the archaeological intervention carried out on the remains of defensive structures from Spanish Civil War in the village of Sant Pau d’Ordal, Subirats (Alt Penedès, Barcelona) that were operational in the latter stages of the conflict in Catalonia (January 1939). Despite their high number, none of the items excavated provided a significant number of materials from the period. So here also it is reflected on the problem of the low level of protection of the archaeological heritage of the Spanish Civil War.
