The mayor of La Seu d'Urgell, Joan Barrera, welcomed Xavier Fina, the director general of Cultural Rights, Creation and Libraries from the Catalonia Department of Culture, for a working meeting focused on enhancing and developing the city's cultural facilities.
During the meeting, which also addressed the future project of the Guiu sisters' installation, Mayor Barrera secured a firm commitment from the Catalan government to proceed with the construction of a new municipal theatre-auditorium. This facility will be situated on a plot already reserved by the town hall in the l'Horta del Valira area.
Director general Fina stated that this new cultural space has become a priority for the Catalonia government. The infrastructure is intended to serve not only the city but the wider region, reflecting its supramunicipal ambition.
Mayor Barrera expressed his strong approval of the Generalitat's willingness to invest, highlighting the strategic importance of this project in positioning La Seu d'Urgell as a cultural reference point in the Pyrenees.
