  • La Batalla de Bilbao tuvo lugar en la ciudad del mismo nombre y en sus alrededores durante junio de 1937, en el contexto la Guerra Civil Española y, más concretamente, de los combates que estaban teniendo lugar en Vizcaya. Su posesión era elemental para ambos bandos, tanto por su situación estratégica en la franja cantábrica controlada por la República, como por sus industrias pesadas y fábricas de armas. Después de una larga y sangrienta ofensiva del Bando nacional, a principios de Junio sus tropas se hallaban frente a la capital vizcaína, aunque les quedaba superar una última barrera: el Cinturón de Hierro.
  • La battaglia di Bilbao si svolse nella primavera del 1937 nel quadro della Guerra del Nord durante la guerra civile spagnola.
  • The Battle of Bilbao was part of the War in the North, during the Spanish Civil War where the Nationalist Army captured the city of Bilbao and the remaining parts of the Basque Country still held by the Republic. Bilbao was the capital of the autonomous Basque area established by the Republic after the war began. This establishment was in payment for Basque Nationalist support of the Republic. The Basque people in Spain generally inhabit four provinces, Navarre, Álava, Gipuzkoa and Biscay. The Basque Nationalists were dominant in the latter two provinces. Navarre and Álava had rallied to the rising against the Republic. The Spanish Nationalists troops gained Gipuzkoa early in the war with the fall of San Sebastián, September 13, 1936. By June 11, 1937, The Basque forces had fallen back to the city of Bilbao, which was defended by a series of rushed fortifications called the "Iron Belt. " The Iron Belt was poorly designed for defense and the designer of the Belt, engineer Alejandro Goicoechea, defected to the Nationalists and brought them the plans of the defenses, so that they could strike at the weakest point. The ring was breached by an infantry assault supported by heavy artillery bombardment. On the night of June 13 the defenders evacuated most of the civilian population from the city. On June 18 General Ulibarri withdrew his remaining troops from Bilbao and the Nationalists occupied the city on the following day. The city's bridges had been destroyed to hinder the attackers but the city remained mostly intact.
