Memorial for the victims of
March 11 2004
Fam Studio, 2007

Memorial for the victims of March 11 2004 and one of the entrances of the Atocha railway station in Madrid (Spain). Part of the
extension projected by architect Rafael Moneo (born 1937) built between 1985 and 1992

One of the entrances of the Atocha
railway station in Madrid (Spain) and
the Memorial for the victims of March
11 2004

Memorial for the victims of March 11 2004 in Madrid (Spain)

The cylindrical glass
memorial looks like a big
lamp, about 11 metres
tall, 8 metres in diameter
and weighing 160 tons.
The outside of the
memorial is made of 12
thousand blocks of glass

The "representation space": a dark room with blue walls barely lit up by the rays of light that come in through a small slit in the
ceiling

Messages of solidarity written by citizens in memory of the victims and for their families are projected on the walls inside the memorial
at different times of day, depending on the light conditions

The transparency of the glass
allows visitors to see people
moving about in Atocha
station. This empty, soundless
space is the most intimate,
meditative, evocative heart of
the memorial

What makes this
project so unusual is its
capability of acting as a
memorial not only with
its iconic cylindrical
architecture, but with
the atmosphere it
manages to create,
speaking the language
of transparency,
silence, meditation and
intimacy

Exactly three
years after the
terrorist attack
that caused 191
tragic deaths at
Atocha station,
Madrid has
inaugurated a
memorial
designed by
Studio FAM
(Fascinante
Aroma a
Manzana; the
name means
Fascinating Smell
of Apple)
