Lavado de cara á praza de San Xoán de Sobrado do Bispo - Barbadás, Ourense, Galicia, España - News Article Locations on Waymarking.com

"The square of the chapel of San Xoán de Sobrado do Bispo is receiving a facelift, after its renovation work was awarded for more than 54,000 euros. The aim is to make it more accessible and safer for pedestrians, as well as beautifying it.

The Barbadás City Council undertakes a new aesthetic of the square, with a mixture of pavements to adapt it to the guidelines set by the General Directorate of Heritage. The intervention covers the entire area around the chapel.

The works envisage the installation of country stone paving in the central area of ??the square -between the chapel and the music square-, while in the free space between the stone pavement and the roads concrete is applied with washed aggregate combined with aged concrete cobblestones .

As part of these works, new lighting will also be installed and performances will be held in the music box, which will be covered with a corten steel structure. No direct intervention is contemplated on the chapel. As for the trees, the existing acacia trees will be respected and new specimens will be added. Stone benches will also be located in the square. The work, which was awarded last May, is already quite advanced. "
