Mazarrón has taken this year to FITUR its new free museum dedicated to mining 'Antonio Paredes' where, in addition to enjoying the mining history in the municipality, you can take an ethnographic walk through life that revolved around the mining activity.
The presentation was made by the mayor of Mazarrón, Gaspar Miras, and the Councilor for Tourism, Raquel Raja.
The 'Antonio Paredes' Museum, created and launched by this mazarronero, has valued part of its heritage funds for the enjoyment of neighbors and tourists.
The museum will begin to be part of the traditional visits that are made to the mines of Mazarrón to complete this commitment to the Mazarron mining heritage.
Gaspar Miras has expressed his "satisfaction at the launch of this museum that puts in value, not only a part of the mining heritage in Mazarrón, but also recovers part of our history."
The Councilor for Tourism, Raquel Raja, has praised the work of this mazarronero and his selfless work in launching this new museum space in the municipality.
Mazarrón's bet on FITUR, complemented by the museum and mining heritage, has been focused on this recovery of the history that the City Council wants to highlight with the enhancement of the archaeological heritage, with the Phoenician Ship as its flagship flag and its future museum;
the natural and landscape heritage, with the Bolrosue Erosions leading the way as the first Natural Monument of the Region;
and cultural heritage, which will be strongly committed to the restoration of the Casino Ateneo and the Mansion House of La Cañadica.
