We are grateful to be part of the event and what is going to happen in Astorga this year,&#8221; said Wednesday the director of Communication and Institutional Relations of Caja Rural.<\/p>\n\n<p>For his part, the director of the Palace stressed the importance of having the collaboration of the Caja Rural Foundation in this special year. &#8220;There are few Gaud\u00ed buildings outside Catalonia and Astorga is perhaps the most difficult to show to the world. That is why we created the Ambassadors program, so that institutions and individuals can help us to carry out this work. I want to thank Caja Rural for their collaboration and help to carry out different activities this year in the Palace of Gaud\u00ed, starting in March with the events around the figure of Bishop Grau, a friend of Gaud\u00ed and both from Reus, thanks to whom we have Gaud\u00ed present in the province of Le\u00f3n. Thanks to the work and commitment of Caja Rural to help spread the Palace in this centenary year&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Nombramiento-Embajadora-Caja-Rural-2-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"Palacio de Gaudi\" class=\"wp-image-6853\" title=\"Palacio de Gaudi\"><\/figure>\n\n<p>During the ceremony, an accredited and framed diploma was handed out, officially marking the anniversary and formalizing the commitment acquired. Through its Foundation, Caja Rural will assume the role of ambassador of the monument, actively promoting its dissemination, its cultural programming and its positioning as a tourist and heritage reference.<\/p>\n\n<p>The &#8220;Ambassadors of the Palace&#8221; program was created with the aim of involving institutions, companies and entities in the projection of the monument of Astorga, reinforcing its cultural dimension and its capacity of attraction beyond the local level. In this context, the collaboration with Caja Rural represents a significant support for the consolidation of the calendar of activities planned for 2026 and for the expansion of the Gaud\u00ed legacy throughout the territory.<\/p>\n\n<p>With this appointment, Gaud\u00ed Palace continues to weave a network of alliances that will allow Gaud\u00ed Year 2026 to be a shared, open and memorable celebration, strengthening cooperation between the cultural sphere and the business fabric.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/Nombramiento-Embajadora-Caja-Rural-3-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"Palacio de Gaudi\" class=\"wp-image-6854\" title=\"Palacio de Gaudi\"><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Gaud\u00ed Palace of Astorga has awarded this Wednesday to the Caja Rural Foundation the institutional title of &#8220;Ambassador of the Palace&#8221;, within the framework of the institutional program that articulates the strategic alliances on the occasion of the Gaud\u00ed Year 2026, commemoration of the centenary of the death of Antoni Gaud\u00ed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8951,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[179,180,173],"tags":[186,184],"class_list":["post-8937","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-events","category-gaudi-year-2","category-news","tag-gaudi-palace","tag-palace-ambassadors"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8937","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8937"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8937\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9054,"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8937\/revisions\/9054"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8951"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8937"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8937"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8937"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
