The Carmelite Order celebrates in a single commemoration its martyrs who, in different places in Spain, gave their testimony during the long and violent Civil War (1933-1936). The title mentions Father Angel Maria Prat Hostench O.Carm, killed with his community in 1936 in Tarrega, and Father Lucas de St. Joseph O.C.D., killed with his brothers also in Barcelona in 1936. The groups of Lérida, Tarragona, Toledo, Olot, Terrasa, etc. are also associated to this memorial. All the bishops, diocesan priests, religious of various orders and lay people were beatified in part (498 martyrs) by Benedict XVI on 28 October 2007 and in part (522 martyrs) by Francis on 13 October 2013.
