DRY STONE TRAINING COURSE

The art of building dry stone walls includes the knowledge and practice of making them with a mere pile of stones without using other construction materials, except sometimes dry earth. This UNESCO definition refers to one of the most characteristic practices of traditional popular construction in the Maestrazgo area. It is a technique that is widespread throughout the territory and has an important landscape relevance. In fact, its historical importance has led it to be included in the List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. For this reason, the Maestrazgo Cultural Park will offer a training course on dry stone.

The training course “Enhancing the value of the immaterial technique of dry stone work in the Maestrazgo Cultural Park” will deepen about the construction technique inherited from our ancestors. Also, you will have the opportunity to see some of the most representative examples that can be found in Maestrazgo. The dates to attend are as follows:

– Mirambel: May 21, 28 and June 4
