La Union and its Mining Park (ES)

by Susanna Martinez-Rodriguez – University of Murcia

La Union (The Union) is a municipality in South-East Spain and the identity is based on the mining exploitation, which attracted many Andalusian to migrate here already in the 19th century. In the second half of the 20th century the bay of the municipality was used as a massive landfill by private mining companies. In the 1990’s the mining companies closed, most of the workers-communities emigrated from the municipality. The remaining population tries to attract attention with culture and creative industries.

How can the “La Union” Mining Park become more attractive for visitors?

The team developed a plan how to develop creative industries and new branding for the mining area. The aim of the plan is to attract more visitors to the site.
