Carmen Polo de Franco

politician Spain

Carmen Polo de Franco, also known as Doña Carmen, was the wife of Francisco Franco, the dictator who ruled Spain from 1939 until his death in 1975. Born in 1900, she became a prominent figure in Spanish society, often accompanying her husband on official engagements. Known for her conservative views and support of Franco's regime, Carmen Polo was seen as a symbol of the traditional Spanish woman during the dictatorship. Her visits to various locations, including a notable trip to Andorra in 1966, have been documented in chronicles of the time. Following Franco's death, she largely withdrew from public life but remained a figure of interest in discussions surrounding Spain's historical memory and the legacy of the Franco regime.
