This paper explores the potential of digital reconstruction and interactive storytelling to preserve historically suppressed sites. The main objective of an interdisciplinary team of data scientists from the MEMORISE project and associates of the memory association Asociacion Recuerdo y Dignidad was to preserve the memory of the Francoist Santa Clara concentration camp in Soria, Spain, through the use of digital technology. Combining archival research, 3D modelling, 360-degree photography, and web development, a prototype digital platform was created to visualise the transformation of the site across three historical phases: its origin as a convent, its use as a Francoist concentration camp, and its present-day condition. The platform allows users to navigate through spatial and temporal layers. Clickable media markers encourage exploration and interaction. Drawing on principles of participatory design, narrative visualisation, and open-ended user engagement, the project demonstrates how digital tools can support memory work, public engagement, and historical reflection. Our low-cost concept is especially adaptable to other physical sites that have been erased or forgotten.
