Though already we have closed the Campaign, we are accepted and publishing in the Web those adhesions that are coming by e-mail, in the conviction of that all those more we are better it will be for the recovery of the Monument Arizón. Thank you. Aula Gerión. gerionsanlucar@hotmail.com The ‘Save Arizón’ Public Petition 18 years of abandon and ruin Arizón cannot wait The monumental Arizón House was built between the 17th and 18th centuries and is considered an exceptional model of the commercial palaces constructed to facilitate trade between America and the Andalusia region of Spain. The Arizón House represents important historical, architectural and cultural trends. Its structure was originally conceived to function both residentially and commercially. Of a Baroque style, this estate is made up of two large houses, and various storehouses and bodegas. The noteworthy architectural aspects include a mezzanine, a lodge, an oratory, a hitching post, extraordinary murals, and a splendid tower with a look-out, all constructed and adorned by materials of the highest quality. It is because of these characteristics that this estate was declared of high cultural interest within the category of ‘monument’ by the Cultural Council of the Andalusian regional government. It is also one of the most emblematic buildings of the Civil Architecture of Sanlúcar de Barrameda and Andalusia. Furthermore, the Arizón House serves as a poignant symbol of the destruction wreaked by urban speculators that this Historical Society and the citizens of Sanlúcar de Barrameda have been witnessing in recent years. Today, the Arizón House is faced with the abandoned state that its current proprietors have left it in for the last eighteen years, the passivity of the Public Administration, and the proposition to construct more than eighty residences and tourist apartments on this important historical sight. This project is nothing less than an insult to the citizens of Sanlúcar de Barrameda and the current legislators.
