Abstract

The main object of this article is the recovery of the events happened in the village of Vicálvaro between July 17th and July 20th, 1936. We studied the key documentation, which allowed us to reconstruct the daily life of the village, and specially the one of the barracks of light artillery No. 2, which was responsible for the rebellion in this quarter of Madrid. Some local conclusions can be derived from the analysis of the information, which may contribute to the debate about other issues, such the theoretical collapse of the republican state after the revolt.
