On October 10, 2026, the first deputy mayor of Albacete, Francisco Navarro, hosted participants of the XVI national Mercedes W 70 gathering at the Municipal Knife Museum. The event, which began yesterday and runs until tomorrow, attracts enthusiasts of these vehicles to the city.
During the meeting, Navarro expressed gratitude to Jaime López, president of the W107 Spain Club, and Manuel García Cifo, the event organizer, for choosing Albacete as the venue for this gathering. He noted that the event helps promote the city's cultural, historical, and tourist attractions.
Among the highlights mentioned by Navarro was the Municipal Knife Museum, a symbol of Albacete's knife-making tradition, along with other notable sites such as the Cathedral, the Pasaje de Lodares, and the Pincho de la Feria, where an exhibition of participating vehicles took place this morning.
As a token of appreciation, Navarro presented the club president with a traditional Albacete knife as a souvenir of the gathering. He encouraged attendees to enjoy their stay in the city and to return soon to explore all that Albacete has to offer.
