The renovation project for the Santa Pau Castle's roof aims to restore its original medieval fortress image by recovering the ancient battlements. This action will help reclaim a significant part of the municipality's history.
The project has a budget of €1.3 million. The City Council already has approximately €800,000 in committed funding and plans to apply for aid from the State Government's 2% Cultural program, which could cover up to 80% of the work. The objective is to secure maximum external funding to minimize the cost to the municipality.
The Monuments Service of the Girona Provincial Council has drafted the executive project for the roof at no cost to the City Council, resulting in an estimated saving of around €110,000 for municipal coffers.
The current government team fulfilled its promise to purchase the castle at no cost to the City Council and continues to work on managing the project effectively, seeking funding and safeguarding municipal resources.
