The conservation association requires the General Directorate to order the City Council of Murcia to withdraw these elements, for allegedly contradicting the Regional Cultural Heritage Law

HUERMUR reminds the City Council that it has already had to remove some time ago other elements of the facade of the Romea Theater "which is not a billboard or a clothes line to hang inventions" but "a monumental facade protected at the highest level"

The entity requires both the City Council and Cultural Property all the documentation on the facilities and works performed at the Romea Theater on the occasion of the Gastronomic Capital

Some users of social networks have described the installation as "vomit", "pus plates", "yellow mushroom", or even "foam stick to fill cracks"

The Association for the Conservation of the Garden and Heritage of Murcia (HUERMUR) has denounced before the General Directorate of Cultural Property of the Ministry of Culture the installation of distorting and strident elements on the facade of the Romea Theater, in the city of Murcia , which is protected as a BIC Monument (Cultural Interest Asset).

The conservation entity has directed its complaint to the regional authority in matters of cultural heritage, given the maintenance on the facade of the Romea Theater of the recently installed elements, consisting of a yellowish amalgam of sparkling type supporting pieces of kitchenware.

For the association, "our monuments and their facades are not advertising spaces or clothes ropes to hang any invention that occurs to their owner or responsible, but they are centennial spaces worthy of protection and attention."

From HUERMUR remember that "The Cultural Heritage Law of the Region of Murcia already indicates that the facilities in the BIC can not consist of advertising, billboards, posters, cables, antennas or 'anything that prevents or impairs the appreciation of good' , as indicated in article 38 ", as well as" the provisions of article 40, which states that 'any intervention that intends to be carried out in a property declared of cultural interest must be aimed at its conservation and improvement' and what they have put Romea neither preserves nor improves its facade. "

The association has written to both the Ministry of Culture and the City of Murcia to request all the information and technical reports and mandatory authorizations in relation to the facilities and works carried out at the Romea Theater and its former cafeteria, facing the units recently enabled for the Spanish Capital of Gastronomy, since "yellow amalgams" have also been installed inside this area of ​​the Theater.

The images of the installation made on the facade of the Romea Theater have generated hundreds of comments on social networks, coming to treasure ratings such as "yellow mushroom", "pus plates", "vomit" and even that it seems "a stick of foam filling cracks "in constructions and works.

Finally, the conservation association wants to highlight that "while a good part of the cultural heritage of the municipality of Murcia languishes between garbage, painted and ruinous abandonment, administrations are dedicated to squandering in unnecessary interventions in spaces such as the Romea Theater, instead of fulfilling with its duty to conserve and restore all the monumental heritage of Murcia, partly in the hands of the administrations themselves and whose neglect and abandonment is well known.
