This initiative, which started at El Cogul, has been replicated in other key Catalan heritage sites such as the Cartoixa d’Escaladei, the Vall de Boí Complex, the Castell de Miravet, and soon the monastery of Sant Pere de Rodes. The Government highlighted that the project introduces a gender perspective that had been overlooked by scholars for decades.
