description This paper intends to be a contribution to the study of the spatial dimension of the practices to reassign meaning to the locations that used to function as Clandestine Detention Centers during the last military dictatorship in Argentina; focusing on the Mansión Seré Project, located where the former Atila Clandestine Center used to work between 1977 and 1978, of which the Air Forces were in charge. The memory space is delimited and marked -it is visible to the eye; the events define the localization processes which articulate the urban space and collective memory categories with a set aim (remembering/commemorating/condemning), which establishes the links whose meanings have been newly assigned by those who go through them and the subjects are gone through in that constructed space, in that memory space.
