Town east of Bilbao bombed by German planes in April 1937 during the Spanish Civil War (8)

I believe the answer is:

guernica

(Other definitions for guernica that I've seen before include "piece of art" , "Picasso painting inspired by a bombed town" , "massacre" , "Bombed Spanish town inspiring Picasso picture" , "great work of art?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
