The power of call has been historical and the day has developed without any altercation. From nine in the morning they have not stopped arriving cars to the doors of the Valley of the Fallen, caused withholdings on the road of several hours.
As a consequence, they have been held two mass masses And the Benedictine monks have had to beg for the microphones that due to the large influx of faithful gave the place to those who had not yet been able to attend Mass, among which were several Vox members, such as the MEP Jorge Buxadé, who at the doors of the Basilica has denounced that the resignification of the Valley of the Fallen responds to “a policy of concealment of truth and the real sense of reconciliation.”
«It is as if someone proposed to resignify the Palacio de la Granja in Segovia or El Escorial. It is part of everyone’s heritage and we want it to remain what it is, and that nobody changes the meaning because it is deceiving, ”he said Okdiario.

While excusing himself by saying that such resignification is “exclusive competence of the Holy See and the Government, which are the parties that have carried out the negotiations.”
However, for a wide community of faithful, the interference of the Government of Spain within the Basilica and the modification as devised, «It is a full -fledged desecrationno matter how much they have announced that the Benedictine monks will be able Jose Andrés Calderónwho moved this Saturday the traditional prayer of Ferraz to the Valley of the Fallen this Saturday as a sign of protest.
«We have normalized that it blasphemes against God, that crosses are demolished, or that those who pray in the abortions are pursued. Every attack is worth the Christians. And the drop that has filled the glass is the desecration project and Dispart from the basilica from the Valley of the Fallen in which I am, ”Calderón denounced.
