THEMATIC EXHIBITION OF POPULAR CONSTRUCTIONS OF THE REGION
This tour has been designed
with the intention of preserving de Intangible Cultural Heritage made of the
popular knowledge, where the constructive techniques and the materials employed
by the pioneers since the first years of our town are explained in detail.
These were used to build houses as well as fences and other improvements.
The structure that recreates
them has been realized by a pioneer of the town, Sr. Victor Hugo Morales, who
was born in the north shore of the lake, Is one of the settlers that knows the
traditional construction techniques, like making cypress roof tiles.
It´s worth noting that the
wood has been donated by descendants of pioneer families and part of it belongs
to the ancient house of an old settler that was dismantled and from which some
of the wood was salvaged to be used in the “Log Corners” or “Block House”
techniques.
Let it be a homage and recognition to all those who have contributed with their knowledge to the forging of our town.
