A Coru\u00f1a Provincial Council and CMAT, the Costa da Morte tourism association, have met to assess the current status of the Costa da Morte Megalithic Park. Led by the Council’s Heritage Department, the initiative aims to highlight the region’s megalithic legacy while exploring its future role in local cultural tourism.<\/p>\n
The meeting was attended by Xos\u00e9 Penas, the Provincial Council’s heritage representative; Jos\u00e9 Manuel L\u00f3pez Varela, president of CMAT and mayor of A Laracha; and Mar\u00eda Lema Santabaya, a councillor in Dumbr\u00eda and CMAT board member. They discussed the progress made so far and the steps still required to move the project forward.<\/p>\n
The Provincial Council reported that it has signed an agreement with Estudo T\u00e9cnico Galego to carry out the necessary land expropriation procedures. Work is also beginning on signage to identify heritage features and help prepare for the organisation of visits at a later stage.<\/p>\n
The participants recognised the archaeological and cultural importance of the park, alongside its potential to broaden Costa da Morte’s tourism offer. Once developed, the visitor experience could make the region’s megalithic heritage more accessible and support activity in the municipalities involved.<\/p>\n
Both organisations emphasised the need for continued cooperation between public authorities and the local tourism sector. The meeting provided an opportunity to share information, identify outstanding needs and reinforce the collaboration required for the project’s next stages.<\/p>\n
