Derry. NORTHERN IRELAND

Albeit mostly everybody, including some of the unionists, know it as Derry, the city remains legally called Londonderry since the XVII th century. Interesting walled city that will be European 2013 capital of culture, Derry is mostly remembered by the events of the Bloody Sunday, that lead to the troubles and are displayed in some of the painted walls of the city (see restoration of the wall of peace on third photo). In Sunday January 30, 1972 (date that was to be known as Bloody Sunday) thirteen unarmed civilians were shot dead by British troopers during a pacific civil rights march in the Bogside area.
