Gibraltar Cultural Services (GCS) hosted delegates from the 4th Gibraltar International Conference, recently held at the University of Cadiz.
As part of the Gibraltar visit, delegates were welcomed by GCS with a guided tour of the City Hall to include the Mayor’s Parlour and the Mario Finlayson National Gallery. Their visit concluded with a Culture Crawl hosted by the Llanito History Doctor Dr Ryan Asquez and GCS’s Davina Barbara.
Beginning at Casemates Square, the walk took participants through the Upper Town via El Coronel, Castle Ramp, Castle Street, (La Escalera del Horno), and New Passage, before returning to Main Street and finishing at the Piazza. The tour offered visitors a glimpse into the history of Gibraltar’s Upper Town and the stories behind many of its historic street names, while also showcasing street art and key cultural landmarks along the route. The visit tied in closely with several themes explored during the Cádiz conference, highlighting the richness of Gibraltar’s linguistic heritage, identity, and community history.
