Type of Heritage Interpretation activity This is an integral planning activity. Brief description This initiative was born thanks to the encouragement of local social movements (the Was- ka association, the publication “La fuentezuela,” neighbourhood associations...), who were concerned about saving the archaeological site of El Ruedo village from being partially destroyed by a road project. As a result of this concern, the Town Council capitalised on this effort and supported the creation of the Caicena River Ecomuseum. This type of mu - seum coordinates the museological planning of the entire cultural heritage of the Cordoba Subbaetic landscape. Almedinilla. Picture by Caicena River Ecomuseum.
