Gonzalo Menéndez-Pidal (April 12, 1911– December 11, 2008) was a Spanish historian, cartographer, cinematographer, photographer, and archivist. He was the youngest historian to ever be admitted to the Spanish Royal Academy of History. He was the son of Ramon Menendez Pidal and Maria Goyri de Menendez Pidal, who was the first woman to officially graduate from a Spanish university, the Universidad de Madrid.
Gonzalo Menéndez Pidal travelled to Munich at the age of seventeen to study Vulgar Latin with Karl Vossler and Philosophy of History with Pinder. Gonzalo Menendez-Pidal combined his family's fascination with the history of the Iberian Peninsula with an interest in the latest technologies. Gonzalo Menendez-Pidal studied cinematography at the Film und Bildamt der Stadt Berlin. He filmed his experiences as he travelled through Spain in the time leading up to the Spanish Civil War. Most of his films were anthropological documentaries; one set chronicles such as “La Barraca”, which he created with Federico García Lorca and others. His other works are Dieciocho de julio, número 2 - Madrid (1936), Guerra en el campo (1936) and Ávila, ayer y hoy (1943).
