Francisco Franco National Foundation
The Francisco Franco National Foundation is a foundation created in 1976 devoted to promoting the legacy of the Spanish dictator Francisco Franco. The only child of Franco, Carmen Franco led the organisation and later became its honorary president.
In 2017, 200,000 people signed a petition calling on the Spanish government to ban the organisation.
In 2018, after new Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez promised that Franco's remains would be removed from the Valley of the Fallen, the Foundation collected a petition with 24,000 signatures to oppose the proposal. While relatively marginal in Spanish political culture, the FNFF gained enormous public visibility in connection with the dictator's exhumation.
In 2024, the Spanish Ministry of Culture started proceedings to outlaw the foundation under the 2022 Democratic Memory Law.
