Sunday, May 4th 1969.
Footage of a mass meeting by followers of the Carlist Movement which also led to demonstrations against General Franco.
The meeting, an annual commemoration of those Carlists who died fighting on the Nationalist side during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939), took place at the foot of Montejurra Mountain near Estella in the Province of Navarre.
The gathering had been banned because it was expected to turn into a protest demonstration in favour of the return of Prince Xavier of Bourbon-Parma, the 79-year-old Carlist Pretender who was exiled to France the previous year.
After the ceremonies, they headed for the town's main square where chants of "FRANCO MURDERER" and "LONG LIVE KING XAVIER" were heard. There were also banners which called on Franco to resign as General de Gaulle had. The Spanish Civil Guard were present and although there were some "honour confrontations" there was no violence.
The Carlist waged unsuccessful dynastic wars during the 19th Century.
Princess María Teresa of Bourbon-Parma was present. She represented the modern shift of Carlism from a force of conservative Roman Catholic thinking to a liberal socialist ideological school of thought.
She was an active supporter of the secessionist State of Biafra.
