This intervention, part of the 2% Cultural Program, promoted by the ministries of Transport and Sustainable Mobility and Housing and Urban Agenda, will be executed by the company Víctor Tormo SL. It represents a significant step in preserving one of the most important heritage landmarks in the city of Gandia.
The project outlines four main lines of action affecting different areas of the property. Notably, the rehabilitation of the Hall of Crowns will cover over 150 square meters, including the floor, wooden beams, and ceiling, aiming to reinforce the existing structure.
Additionally, the restoration of the Patio de Armas staircase will be carried out, which shows deterioration in both the wood and support elements, as well as the roof, currently shored up due to structural problems. Intervention will also take place in the former Duke's study or neo-Gothic chapel, where existing deformation in the central pavement area will be corrected.
“"We are taking a firm step towards the recovery of a fundamental space in our history. The intervention will ensure the conservation of the Palau Ducal and continue to strengthen its cultural and tourist appeal."
Finally, the project includes actions on the wall located between Jesuitas and Carmelitas streets and on the terrace facing the facade of the Hall of Crowns, to enhance this part of the building. The mayor of Gandia, who presided over the Board of Trustees meeting, emphasized that this intervention responds to a city strategy focused on heritage protection, highlighting the importance of management to access funding that makes such large-scale actions possible.
