The Mayor of Nerja, José Alberto Armijo, has announced that, following his visit to Sevilla on Monday, the new museum will be included in the register of museums in Andalucia in July.
The Mayor met with María Inmaculada López, head of the Directorate of Museums and Art Promotion of the Ministry of Culture and it was agreed that an extraordinary meeting of the Andalucian Museums Committee will be held next month to sort out various issues, including the Nerja Museum.
The Mayor took the opportunity to view various files relating the the museum, lamenting that earlier access to documentation had always been hindered or blocked by the president of the Nerja Caves Foundation, Hilario López Luna, and the manager, Ángel Ramírez.
Armijo also believes that during the past two years, no-one from the Nerja Caves Foundation has even bothered to check on progress with the Directorate of Museums.
