“Atocha Street". This street led to the old Chapel of Our Lady of Atocha, where today stands a basilica. The origin of the name Atocha is unclear. This is a lively street full with popular bars and cafés. In 1977, little after Franco’s death, five left-wing specialists in labor law were killed in their office located in this street by right extremists in what is known as “the massacre of Atocha”.
