On the third anniversary of the terrible train bombings in Madrid which killed 191 people a remembrance memorial was inaugurated for the honor of the victims. The 11 meter tall cylinder glass monument stands just outside the Atocha train station.
Held in the inside of this structure are the inscribed messages of condolences made in the days after the attacks by people from all around the world. Currently on trial are the 29 people thought responsible for the attacks which will go on for months.
If you are in Madrid , a visit to this monument is a destination that must be made.
