Summary
Las Médulas stands as a unique testament to the Roman Empire's gold extraction methods from two millennia ago. The site's geological features and historical vestiges attract thousands of visitors annually, posing significant challenges for heritage, territorial, socio-political, and economic management. This study advocates for a unified management model that integrates existing assets, balancing economic interests with broader patrimonial considerations. It highlights the urgent need to reconcile the diverse interests of stakeholders within the Cultural and Natural Space of Las Médulas, ensuring sustainable and holistic preservation.
