The Fuentelencina Town Hall plans to launch the Bullfighting Museum “Manolete-Iván Fandiño”, which would be located in a building of 950 square meters distributed over two floors and adjacent to the house that the famous bullfighter of Córdoba owned in the municipality.
The museum would have two entrances (one on Botica Street and the other on Remolina Street), while inside there would be several classrooms, as well as a library, a media library and a meeting room. The architect who wrote the project, Miguel Luis Jiménez, explains that the site where it was planned “is a fairly large and clear space, almost entirely between party walls.”
For his part, the mayor, Santos López, comments that the intention is to “give it a provincial, regional and national character and we will knock on all doors to achieve this, because Its production costs around two million euros.. Likewise, the director of the Citar bullfighting school, Pedro Alonso, considers that it would be “an educational museum which aims to be an arrival point, a meeting point and an exit point which allows people from other places to know our land.
Finally, the president of the Provincial Delegation of Guadalajara, José Luis Vega, emphasizes that he could apply for European funding calls for tourism projects. “Guadalajara is a bullfighting province and what better place to implement a project of this magnitude than Fuentelencina, where Manolete spent long stays,” he adds.
