Pervivencia de la Ley del Tesoro Artístico de 1933, durante el periodo franquista, a través de los arquitectos de zona

Resumen

El conocimiento de la historia de la conservación de nuestro Patrimonio Construido, precisa del estudio del marco político y social de cada periodo, la integración de las corrientes internacionales, su adaptación, desarrollo normativo, estructuras organizativas, etc., para finalmente prestar atención a las personas que llevaron a cabo las intervenciones entendiendo su propio debate intelectual y crítico. Entre las distintas respuestas estructuradas, encontramos un grupo de Arquitectos dotados de entidad propia, respaldados por un amplio marco legislativo, al que no se ha prestado una atención específica como grupo, aunque si a sus componentes, dada su notoriedad individual. Nos referimos a los denominados Arquitectos de Zona o Arquitectos Conservadores de Zona, cuya figura es fijada por la Ley de 1933, o mejor dicho por su Reglamento de 1936, aunque su existencia es anterior, permaneciendo hasta los albores de la Democracia. ----------ABSTRACT---------- In order to delve into the history of conservation of the Spanish built heritage it is necessary to study the political and social framework of each historic period, its evolution, the integration of international trends, their adaptation and peculiar features and the development of legal systems and organization structures. Once we have looked into all this information, we will focus on the individuals who were responsible for relevant actions in this field, so as to understand their own personal intellectual and critical development. Among the different alternative sources provided to this purpose, we find a group of Architects endowed with a clear group entity under the support of a consistent legislative framework. This group has not received enough attention other than the emphasis placed on its individual constituents, given the popularity most of them reached. We are referring to the so called Area Architect or Area Conservation Architect, whose formal duties where legally established by Act 1933, and more specifically in Bylaw of 1936, even though they were in existence from, and on until the dawn of Democracy in Spain.
