Berga, molt més que patrimoni immaterial

Planteja un projecte extens, innovador i creatiu, que a part d’un anàlisi de l’estat de la qüestió del patrimoni a Berga i el seu ús proposa noves rutes i noves propostes per conèixer la història de la ciutat de forma més global i amena, activar, donar valor i proposar restauracions d’urgència a elements poc valorats i poc difosos. Fer que la cultura de Berga sigui molt més que la Patum, un patrimoni sostenible durant tot l’any, proper a tota classe de persones, famílies, col·lectius.... S'ha volgut crear una visió global de la cultura Berguedana, una ruta que indagui des dels orígens fins l’actualitat de la capital de comarca, ja que les propostes actuals que s’ofereixen des de l’Oficina de turisme de la ciutat, segmenten la història en parts i per tant els donen més valor, en detriment d’altres que al meu parer també són cabdals en la formació de l’actual Berga
