The City Council of Lleida has started the renovation of the lighting of the Turó de la Seu Vella with an action that foresees replacing about 350 light points with LED technology and renovating part of the wiring in this monumental environment of the city.
The intervention affects the Cathedral, the Suda and the Turó complex, where new spotlights will be installed with the aim of illuminating all corners and improving the perception of the monument during the night.
A new lighting to gain depth
The municipal approach involves lighting that seeks naturalness, with various intensities at different points to provide depth. In the case of the cathedral, the intervention has been designed to gain volume without losing uniformity in the visual whole.
In addition to the replacement of luminaires, the works include renovations of the wiring, an essential part of the planned intervention in one of the most recognizable spaces of Lleida.
Works underway with the horizon of the Main Festival
The municipal calendar sets as objective that the works are finished for the city's Main Festival. The planned investment stands at approximately 744,000 euros.
The action is part of Lleida's public lighting contract and is framed within the improvement of the municipality's urban and heritage lighting.
Institutional visit to the works
This Tuesday, the mayor of Lleida, Fèlix Larrosa, and the deputy mayor of Urban Agenda, Begoña Iglesias, visited the works, in an on-site review of some works that seek to reinforce the nocturnal image of the Turó de la Seu Vella and its immediate surroundings.
With this intervention, the Paeria wants to update a strategic lighting system for the city's profile and do so with a more efficient technology, while enhancing the presence of the Cathedral, the Suda and the monumental complex of the Turó.
