Presentamos la biografía del psiquiatra pacense Florencio Villa Landa, uno de los escasos médicos españoles que se exiliaron a la Unión Soviética durante nuestra Guerra Civil.

Regresó definitivamente a España a final de la década de 1970, una vez instaurada la democracia
We present the biography of the psychiatrist from Badajoz (Spain) Florencio Villa Landa, one of the few Spanish doctors who went into exile in the Soviet Union during our Civil War. In the middle of two stays in that country, our protagonist completed his exile in Mexico and Cuba. In the latter country, he remarkably contributed to the develo-pment of psychiatric services after the triumph of the revolution. He finally returned to Spain at the end of the 70s, once Spanish democracy was established
