Castilla y León Moves to List Doma Vaquera as Intangible Cultural Heritage

The designation would give legal protection with access to training and outreach funds.

Overview

  • The regional government has opened a public comment period that runs until April 3 for the proposed listing.
  • The dossier cites a resolution from the Cultural Heritage directorate and three expert reports solicited by the Culture department.
  • All three opinions, from Manuela Domènech Esteban of UNED Soria, Marta Elena Alonso de la Varga of the University of León, and a report signed by Rafael Cabrera Bonet for the Unión de Bibliófilos Taurinos, back protection.
  • El Norte de Castilla reports the expert texts run only one to three pages each.
  • Local coverage frames the push as reinforcing the Mañueco government’s taurine profile and focuses on riding used to handle fighting cattle.
