The project, which aims to position Córdoba as a global equestrian hub, will be developed under a public-private partnership model. The Córdoba Ecuestre association, responsible for operating the venue, will contribute a minimum investment of 9.7 million euros, supplemented by significant public investment.
The technical preliminary project, accessed by this newspaper, details that the Urban Planning Management will undertake the rehabilitation of three fundamental areas. These include the main stables, intended to house the PRE Horse Museum, intervention on the wall sections, walls, and towers on the western side of the orchard, and the adaptation of the building for a new access from the Upper Alcázar Garden.
The economic report attached to the action plan, which includes 43 interventions in the coming months, does not cover the cost of these three parts, which will be the responsibility of the Urban Planning Department. The works on the stables and walls are the most demanding, with the adaptation of the east wing of the main area estimated to cost around 300,000 euros.
For the walls, towers, and dividing walls between the Alcázar gardens and the orchard, an archaeological intervention will be carried out. This will involve cleaning surfaces, identifying valuable heritage elements, and structural consolidation, removing contemporary additions to ensure their future preservation. The stables, which have hosted events for years, will retain their structure and design, with improvements in lighting, climate control, and repairs to prevent dampness and corrosion. The planned museum in these stables will offer a fluid and coherent experience with a strong scientific component and audiovisual resources.
