In the next few days, restoration work will begin on the monument to the Count of Floridablanca, sculpture by Santiago Baglietto from 1848, located in the garden of the same name.
This intervention includes the complete restoration of the monument to the Count of Floridablanca, both outside and inside and the basement, the pedestal and the column shaft.
The work will be carried out by a team of professional restaurateurs and their work will be supervised by the municipal archeologist and by technicians of the General Directorate of Cultural Property, as it is carried out within a Cultural Interest Property.
Thus, among the actions to be carried out is an integral cleaning of the whole eliminating added coatings, the extraction of the salt efflorescence accumulated in the stone and the structural consolidation giving stability to the whole of the sculpture.
This project has been written after an in-depth study has been carried out in order to guarantee its correct conservation and stability in the future.
The restoration works of the monument to the Count of Floridablanca will be carried out by the company Construcciones y Excavaciones Sánchez López SLU with an investment of 41,580 euros.
This initiative was based on a motion presented in the last mandate approved unanimously, in which he also urged to take the necessary measures to commemorate the death of the Count of Floridablanca on December 30 and initiate the necessary procedures for his appointment as a favorite son of Murcia.
