The civil concentration has been developed in front of the main door of the Consistorial Palace, bringing together hundreds of Cartagena who have joined their voices to demand justice, decisions and resolving capacity before the just vindication, arguments exposed during the reading of the manifesto.
Thus, in the letter of invitation to the rally, the conveners have asked about the reasons for the delay in the rehabilitation, as well as highlighting the incentives that would imply the same, beyond their religious character, by the fact of "recognition of transcendent historical facts and the economic and population growth of this downtown sector of the city ".

MC's commitment to the restoration of the Cathedral
The cartagenerista formation has returned to position itself of the side of the neighbors to make hear a joint call, the one of all the Cartagena in the defense and fights against a historical trampling.
In this case, in reference to a part of our heritage completely forgotten by the regional administration and its owner, the Diocese of Cartagena, the only Cathedral in ruins in the entire country.

Thus, regardless of its areas of competence, has promoted various initiatives aimed at this effect.
It should be recalled that the mayor José López promoted, during the spring, the convening of a working table with the aim of working on the restoration of the Cathedral, appointment that did not appear or the Bishop of the Diocese, José Manuel Lorca Plans, nor the Ministry of Culture of the CARM.
In addition, the cartagenerista formation has defended of insistent way to impel the consolidation, restoration and adaptation of the chapel of the Council in the Cathedral, question that finally will be assumed with charge to the Participative Budgets, the initiative instituted by MC.
Likewise, MC included among its amendments to the 2018 Budget project the destination of 20,000 euros for the preparation of the Master Plan that sets the guidelines for the recovery of the Cathedral.
