The Lower Guadalquivir Canal, also known as the Prisoners' Canal, is an irrigation canal located in southern Spain. It was built during the early Franco era by several thousand political prisoners under the Militarized Penal Colony Service, created in September 1939. It was the public work of Franco's regime that "used political prisoners as its main labor force for the longest period [from 1940 to 1962]."
