The City Council approves this Friday the agreement with the Bishopric to fix the facade of Santa María de Gracia (22/11/2018)

The Local Government Board will approve this Friday November 23 the signing of the collaboration agreement between the City of Cartagena and the Diocese of Cartagena for the restoration of the facade of the church of Santa Maria de Gracia.

The mayor Ana Belén Castejón recalled that this agreement fulfills the commitment reached with the Bishopric.

"Faced with the growing deterioration of the façade, the City Council has deemed it convenient to sign this agreement to contribute to financing both the facade of the Calle del Aire and the side that faces San Miguel Street because, in addition to an aesthetic problem it had become a security problem, "he explained.

Once approved, this agreement will be signed by the first mayor and the bishop of the Diocese, José Manuel Lorca Planes, and will consist of setting the collaboration regime for the works that, once completed, will give the Bishopric 3 months to justify the grant. .

The complete restoration of the façade amounts to 1,025,000 euros, of which the City will finance 300,000.

As the mayor has advanced "for the government team the conservation and maintenance of the architectural heritage of the city is a priority objective, especially when it is an emblematic building that is the nerve center of the processions of Easter in Cartagena" .

This agreement responds to the policy being developed by the current Government to, in addition to continuing to value the archaeological heritage of the municipality, to do the same with the architectural.

It should be remembered that the Consistory accelerated to the maximum the procedures to grant the Bishopric the license so that the restoration works of the façade could begin within the period established by the Diocese.
