The Ateneu Enciclopèdic Popular (Barcelona): an injustice in need of repair

The Ateneu Enciclopèdic Popular was founded in Barcelona in 1902 and became a central part of the city's combative working class culture. For that reason their building was stolen and archives and library burnt by the victorious nationalists in 1939.
