The Spanish Civil War Memorial at Writers Square in Belfast is a tribute to the people of Belfast and beyond who joined the XV International Brigade to fight Fascism in the Spanish Civil War from 1936 to 1939. The memorial also honors those men and women from all traditions who supported the Spanish working people and their Republic.
The memorial was commissioned by the International Brigade Commemoration Committee and unveiled by Bob Doyle, an International Brigade veteran, on 13th October 2007. The sculpture was created by Anto Brennan. The memorial is a testament to the 48 Catholics and Protestants from Belfast who served side by side in the ranks of the International Brigades, marking a sublime moment of working-class unity in the city’s turbulent history.
The plaque on the memorial reads: “Dedicated to the people of Belfast, the island of Ireland and beyond who joined the XV International Brigade to fight Fascism in the Spanish Civil War 1936 - 1939, and those men and women from all traditions who supported the Spanish working people and their Republic.
