The barracks of Civil Guard during the Second Spanish Republic and the Franco regime: the unknown work of a group of architects

Abstract

Resumen [Resumen] Este artículo pretende sacar a la luz los nombres del primer grupo de arquitectos nombrados por la Guardia Civil que, desde la República y durante el Franquismo, procedieron a la consolidación tipológica de la casa-cuartel. Esta iniciativa estatal se basó en unos modelos tipo que, con el paso de los años, fueron personalizados por cada arquitecto, generando un interesante abanico de soluciones. La trascendencia de este colectivo así como de su producción ha sido nula, a pesar de constituir uno de los impulsos constructivos más signifi cativos en la historia del Cuerpo.| [Abstract] Th is article aims to bring to light the names of the fi rst group of architects of the Civil Guard that, since the Spanish Republic and during the Franco regime, consolidated the typological conformation of the barracks.
