La publicación ‘Vitoria-Gasteiz y sus concejos. De abuelas a nietas y nietos’ explora la historia y memoria local mediante testimonios de abuelas, nietas y nietos en la capital alavesa y su zona rural
Beldui Txakolindegia ha acogido en la tarde de este jueves la presentación de Pueblos de Álava. De abuelas a nietas; las historias y recuerdos de las mujeres mayores del territorio recogidos en este proyecto de divulgación turística y cultural impulsado por Arabako Herriak, y que busca recuperar la memoria de los pueblos alaveses a través de testimonios orales.
El proyecto de divulgación turística y cultural “Pueblos de Álava. De abuelas a nietas” -nacido en 2024 con el objetivo de ahondar en la memoria de los pueblos alaveses, a través de las voces más olvidadas: la de las abuelas- ya es una realidad también en Laudio.
The project begins with the publication of the first guidebooks for ten municipalities. The remaining guidebooks will follow, eventually covering the entire territory of Araba. The central element is the testimony of grandmothers who, together with their granddaughters, recount the history of their villages.
Writer and anthropologist Inma Roiz and tourism journalist Itziar Herrán are rescuing the history of older women in rural areas of Álava to attract a 'slow' traveler: "The people of Álava themselves don't know their own villages and there is an impressive wealth of history."
'Villages of Álava. From grandmothers to granddaughters and grandsons' is a new tourism and cultural outreach project to showcase the main historical, natural and gastronomic attractions of the villages of Álava, and to delve into local memory through the most forgotten voices: the grandmothers.
