Museo de la Legi贸n

Ceuta


This intriguing museum is dedicated to and run by the Spanish Legion, an army unit set up in 1920 that played a pivotal role in Franco鈥檚 republican army. Loaded to the gills with memorabilia, weaponry and uniforms, not to mention glory, pomp and circumstance, it is a fascinating glimpse into the military culture that shaped the Spanish Morocco.

There's the imperious statue of fascist leader Franco, an explanation of how the legion鈥檚 founder, Millan Astray, lost his right eye, and the history of the legion in cinema. All information is in Spanish.
