Late Spanish dictator’s family can keep valuable artifacts sought by state, court rules
A Spanish court has ruled that the family of the late dictator General Francisco Franco is entitled to keep a treasure trove of artifacts claimed by the state.
In a statement published Tuesday, the provincial court of A Coruña, northwest Spain, said Franco’s family were entitled to keep precious tables, chairs, crockery, artworks and carpets housed at the Pazo de Meirás, a spectacular manor house once used by the fascist dictator as a summer home.
Valuable items in the house include two statues by medieval sculptor Master Mateo.
