The full council meeting of the
Insular
Council of Mallorca passed on Monday, April 8 2002 the Special Plan
for the Protection of the Historic Place for the properties of the Archduke
Ludwig Salvatore of Austria. The plan will become effective as from
the day after its publication in the
Official
Bulletin of the Balearic Islands.
The territorial field for the application of the approved norm is limited
by the agreements of the Full Mallorcan Council meeting of October 6 and
December 1 of 1997 which declared the stately homes acquired by Archduke
Ludwig Salvatore of Austria between 1872 and 1901 in Valldemossa and Deià
to be Properties of Cultural Interest with the category of Historic Place.
These properties are:
Miramar
(1872), s'Estaca (1873), Son Ferrandell (1890), Son Gual (1894), sa Torre
(1878), Can Costa (1901), Son Moragues (1883), sa Font Figuera (1898),
and Son Galceran (1875), in Valldemossa; and Son Gallard (1896),
Son
Marroig (1877) and sa Pedrissa (1898), in Deià. The total area
affected by the Plan is 1,756 hectares.
The creation of the Plan is based on current disposition in historic
heritage, particularly Article 36 of the
Law
12/1998, of December 21, for the Balearic Historic Heritage, and the
Article 20 of the
Law
16/1985, of June 25, of the Spanish Historic Heritage. Both laws determine
the necessary edition of a Special Protection Plan that regulates the use
and action that can be carried out within the Properties of Cultural Interest,
with the category of Historic Place, and guarantees the preservation of
elements included.
