The aim is to make visible and make known the heritage of the brilliant Catalan architect, in addition to offering the visitor the possibility of taking a little piece of the monument of Astorga as a souvenir to his home, as explained by the director, Victor Murias.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"text_exposed_show\">\n<p>The mayor of Santa Elena de Jamuz, Jorge Fernandez, has insisted that these bricks are not a replica, but the master potter, Jaime Arg\u00fcello, will make the same brick, with the same clay Jimenez, the same Arab oven, the same minium for glazing and the same urces that were used more than 100 years ago. Two hundred unique pieces, 100 of each model, which will be numbered and bear the seal of authenticity of the Palace and the Alfar Museum. The Gaud\u00ed Chair of the Polytechnic University of Catalonia has already analyzed these bricks to certify that they are identical to the originals, according to Fern\u00e1ndez.  <\/p>\n<p>The astorgana notary Antonia Torga has been present at the signing of the agreement that prohibits any reproduction of the molds delivered without permission. They will be sold both in the Palace store and in the Alfar Museum and are expected to be ready for the third Gaud\u00ed World Congress to be held in early July. In the Palace there are 18 different brick molds and the idea is to be able to gradually make the complete collection.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Source: <a id=\"js_2s0\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AstorgaCope\/?hc_ref=ARQDCt5NyiQnMJbqG0yXxlR3Da0ZQySzaX2o3HL1ACNRp_ILI3iKylzmkDHHX18sXaw&amp;fref=nf\" data-hovercard=\"\/ajax\/hovercard\/page.php?id=148946421930393&amp;extragetparams=%7B%22hc_ref%22%3A%22ARQDCt5NyiQnMJbqG0yXxlR3Da0ZQySzaX2o3HL1ACNRp_ILI3iKylzmkDHHX18sXaw%22%2C%22fref%22%3A%22nf%22%7D\" data-hovercard-prefer-more-content-show=\"1\" data-hovercard-referer=\"ARQDCt5NyiQnMJbqG0yXxlR3Da0ZQySzaX2o3HL1ACNRp_ILI3iKylzmkDHHX18sXaw\" aria-describedby=\"js_2rz\" aria-owns=\"js_2rl\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Cope Astorga 87.6 FM<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Visitors to the Episcopal Palace of Astorga will be able to buy the &#8216;authentic&#8217; Gaud\u00ed bricks handcrafted in the Jim\u00e9nez pottery museum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":9223,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[182],"tags":[297,245,181,186],"class_list":["post-9227","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-press","tag-antoni-gaudi-i-cornet","tag-astorga","tag-gaudi","tag-gaudi-palace"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9227","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=9227"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9227\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9223"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9227"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9227"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.palaciodegaudi.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9227"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
