The first edition of the programme "Ja som patrimoni mundial" begins

JA SOM PATRIMONI MUNDIALThe Department of Cultural Affairs of the Consell Insular de Menorca and the Talayotic Menorca Agency are organising the first edition of the outreach programme "Ja som patrimoni mundial", to commemorate the inclusion of Talayotic Menorca in the UNESCO World Heritage List. The programme offers activities, outings and guided tours that will allow visitors to learn about the social, cultural and environmental values of our heritage. The outings are aimed at all ages and profiles with different interests, and will take place one weekend a month, from January 2024 to December 2024, except July and August.

The first activity will be on Sunday January 14 in Montefí and in the naveta des Tudons, as part of the Diada del Poble de Menorca. We will walk along the camí Reial (camí Vell) to discover two prehistoric landscapes (Montefí and the naveta des Tudons). We will learn about the life and death of its inhabitants during prehistoric times and we will also take a leap in time to explain the events that took place in the naveta in 2018 and find out how the monument was recovered. Collaborators: Es Tudons SRM, Xisco Isbert and Lina Torres.

In the 10 activities programmed throughout 2024 we will be able to see our island's heritage from different perspectives. In all of them we will be accompanied by an archaeologist to explain the site in question, but we will also be accompanied by different specialists, such as biologists, geologists or even the owners of the site, who will complement the contents, so that we can understand the plurality of the island's heritage. Because it is not only the sites themselves that are important, but also, as stated in the World Heritage declaration, the surrounding landscape, the place where they are located geologically or the efforts made by the owners to maintain the heritage and the current landscape, mainly agricultural, are also of great importance.

The cost of this activity is covered by the Talayotic Menorca Agency. Capacity is limited and it is necessary to sign up a few days in advance through this link.  Registration will open two Mondays before the activity. Each person can book a ticket for a maximum of two adults and three children. Those interested will receive an email with information about the starting point and meeting time. For any questions you can call or send a whatsapp to 689 33 28 88.
