The city council of Guadalajara has announced an allocation of €50,000 for the conservation and enhancement of the city's religious heritage. This initiative, signed by the mayor of Guadalajara, Ana Guarinos, in collaboration with the Diocese of Sigüenza-Guadalajara, aims to support improvements in five local churches.
