Navacerrada Pass, Segovia front, Spain, late May–early June 1937
Toward the end of May 1937, Gerda Taro and Robert Capa arrived at the Navacerrada Pass, between Madrid and Segovia, to cover an offensive launched by Spanish Republican troops to relieve pressure on the northern front. The failed offensive was immortalized by Ernest Hemingway in For Whom the Bell Tolls.
