The next Tuesday, January 17 at 12:30 pm will be held at the Blue Museum of Holy Week, MASS, the award of the European Union Award for Cultural Heritage Award Europe Nostra.
It should be noted that, although the award of this award was decided in March last year, it is now when the local delivery will proceed.
Selected from 187 projects presented by 36 European countries, the headquarters of the Brotherhood of Labradors, Paso Azul, has been jointly recognized with five other Lorca temples such as San Patricio, San José, San Mateo, Santiago and Nuestra Señora del Carmen .
The rehabilitation of the church of San Francisco and its convent, today Blue Museum of the Holy Week, was promoted by the Foundation Paso Azul, directed by the team of Lávila Arquitectos with Juan de Dios de la Hoz to the front and executed by the company lorquina Lorquimur.
We must remember that San Francisco was the first temple of the city damaged by the earthquakes that opened its doors after the deep rehabilitation that allowed to recover the church in all its splendor.
In fact, in Holy Week 2012, less than a year after the earthquakes shook Lorca, the blues were able to enjoy his temple and organize in it the liturgical acts of Holy Week, as well as form the procession.
As for the ambitious restoration of the convent of San Francisco, its transformation has allowed the creation of the Blue Museum of Holy Week, MASS, the largest museum in the Region of Murcia and a cultural asset for Lorca, the Region of Murcia and the southeast peninsular.
