Ends the rehabilitation of the perimeter wall of the Source of the Siege (21/08/2013)

On July 8, the Local Government formalized the contract with jumillana Eulomán to the adequacy of the Source of the Siege, the Cerrico de la Fuente, located in the Sierra de la Pedrera.

This is the natural spring that supplied from the Iberian era villa Jumilla, and in which there is documented even palaeolithic remains.

Given the historical importance of the whole, in 2010 the Directorate General for the Environment approved a grant of € 34,000 for rehabilitation and conservation work, however the execution of the works did not start until this summer.

The project includes restoring the old wall, protect and control access to Cerrico de la Fuente, conditioning the environment and build a gazebo, and enable access through a path.

Information panels will also be installed which will explain the history of this site.

The work n ° 1 of the redevelopment and rehabilitation was approved by the Governing Board last week along with the minutes of rethinking totaling 10,500 euros.

Thus concludes the restoration of the perimeter wall, projecting like that of its original, adapting to the terrain levels throughout development.

We have also recovered a series of battlements and small arcades with which the work had as an ornament.

The MASJONQUER wall was built to prevent cattle that journeyed there that supplied contaminated water Jumilla.

Then rose a fence that surrounded the spring that is where the name comes the reservoir.

The next performance will be the design of the gazebo area, restoration of the environment and protecting the Fountain existing glasses.
