The Minister of Industry and Tourism, Jordi Hereu, visited Montblanc this Friday to inspect the restoration works of the ancient Sant Francesc church, funded by 3 million euros.

The project, which started last October, aims to turn the historic building into a civic and cultural center. Works are expected to be completed by the end of May, with activities starting this summer.

"We need to diversify the offer and generate new experiences linked to culture, history, and natural heritage."
