Europe
and the Spanish Civil War
A History Department project website that chronicles the various
European responses to the Spanish War of the 1936-39. It is
hoped that schools will contribute to this project by
researching and presenting the history of their own, local
response to the Spanish Civil War. This might range from
something as simple as a photograph of a local Spanish Civil war
memorial, to something as major as an oral history project with
interviews of surviving veterans of the International Brigade. In

Pilgrimage
A new History Department project. Undertaking a pilgrimage was
one of the rare occasions that allowed the peoples of medieval
Europe to experience communities different to their own.
Pilgrimage was perhaps the first truly European experience.
Students across Europe will be invited explore the pilgrimage
traditions of their own communities and to share their research
with a wider European learning community.
