Centro de Conservación y Restauración en La Palma celebrates 25 years of operation

The Centro de Conservación y Restauración en La Palma celebrates 25 years of work on historical documents. The institution has collaborated with ayuntamientos to protect archives since 2003.

The centre works with municipalities such as Santa Cruz de La Palma, El Paso, and Garafía. The work includes preventive conservation, technical visits, and collection condition assessments. These collections include libros pósitos agrícolas and municipal acts. The institution also organises exhibitions. Examples include "Desvelando el pasado" in 2016 and "20 años de recorrido" in 2021. These exhibitions show restoration processes to the public.

Restored documents describe local yields, agreements, administrative decisions, and daily life. The goal of these actions is to make restored materials available for research and presentation. The materials will not remain hidden in storage.
