| Jesús Giménez: "The maintenance of the municipal archaeological heritage is not a priority for this 'Trinca', much more prosaic in its interests" | The authentic nonsense that the local government has institutionalized in its 'protection' of the heritage in our municipality is experiencing a new episode today.

If yesterday was the setting for the Roman Theater, this time, the MC Cartagena Municipal Group, through its deputy spokesman, Jesús Giménez, has emphasized the poor state of conservation of the Punic Wall, as well as the inexplicable ' disappearance 'of the allegorical paintings inside the crypt of San José. In this sense, Giménez has revealed that "among the claims made to the budget, those of Daphne stand out, an association for the defense of the heritage of the Cartagena Region, which has pointed out the most flagrant budget omissions in this document for 2020: the Fort Despeńaperros, the chapel of the Cathedral Council, Victoria Cave, the Punic Wall, the battery of San Leandro and the castles of the Moors or the Watchtower.

" "The Government announced its intention to reject them, so from MC we are already working on various initiatives to prevent the deterioration of some of them from being irreversible," the mayor announced, adding that "we support investing in the maintenance and recovery of heritage and, of course, we have denounced it before cultural property as a previous step to a complaint about looting before the Ministry of Culture.

" "The maintenance of the municipal archaeological heritage is not a priority for this brand, much more prosaic in its interests," said Jesús Giménez. The panorama is bleak, as detailed by the Cartagena councilor.

"In the fields managed by Puerto de Culturas the abandonment is notable, which adds to the uncertain reopening and delays in the ERTE request for employees." The deterioration of the Punic Wall and the crypt of San José, symbol of the passivity of the Government Giménez has delved into the situation of "the Punic Wall and the crypt of San José, which have deteriorated in the face of the passivity of their managers." "The Punic wall, built by Hasdrubal in the 3rd century BC, is being eroded and lost due to poor conservation conditions.

The crypt paintings from the early 19th century, which evoke the dances of death, have already been lost without even the concern of the municipal officials having transpired.

Let's hope it is not too late, "concluded the deputy spokesman for MC.
