In the Civil War
Working closely with his comrades in the FAI and CNT Durruti helped to co-ordinate armed resistance to the military rising of Francisco Franco an effort which was to prove vital in preventing General Goded's attempt to seize control of Barcelona. After a brief and bloody battle at Caspe (in Aragón) they halted at Pina de Ebro on the advice of a regular army officer postponing an assault on Zaragoza. Legacy

At first Durruti's death was not made public for morale reasons.

José Buenaventura Durruti Dumange (14 July 1896 – 20 November 1936) was a central figure of Spanish anarchism during the period leading up to and including the Spanish Civil War.
