The City Council of Les Coves de Vinromà has formalized the recovery of municipal ownership of the old church, a historic building of great heritage value closely linked to the municipality's history and memory.

The recovery was made possible thanks to the efforts made by the City Council and the collaboration of the Diocese of Segorbe. After detecting that the ownership of the property had passed to the parish, the City Council initiated the necessary procedures to clarify the situation and regain municipal ownership of the building.
To this end, conversations were held with the Diocese of Segorbe, which led to a satisfactory agreement for both parties. As a result of this dialogue and good predisposition, the deed formalizing the return of the old church's ownership to the City Council of Les Coves de Vinromà has been signed.
Furthermore, the Diocese of Segorbe has voluntarily assumed all expenses related to the necessary procedures to formalize the change of ownership, a gesture that the City Council particularly appreciates.
