war industrial heritage in peace times


INCUNA and the "Máximo Fuertes Acevedo" Association are pleased to present you "Atenea´s signs. War Industrial Heritage in Peace Times" as the central item of the VII International Meeting about Industrial Heritage that will take place in Gijón in 2005.
The powerfull Atenea represented for the ancient greeks the incarnation of the wisdom and courage and fortune in war, specially in the aspects related to the weapons´ consagration during its manufacture and lately during its use in the battlefield in front of the enemy. Simulating ancient greeks we pretend to use that Atenea´s powers and combine them in a "divine" way in this VII Meeting and so we could put all the wisdom of the ancient Athen´s goddess at the service of the investigation and science in order to turn her war legacy into an historical heritage for all the men in peace times.
During the Meeting papers and informs will be presented of national and international area, related with the study, analysis, interpretation and valuation of the varied historical and industrial heritage generated for the war and for the defence policy carried out by the countries and specially Spain since the ending of the XVIII Century. By this way, they are included all the investigation ways related with:
- Weapon and arms in general. Factories and enclaves of raw materials supply (coal, wood, iron, etc,…). The residential areas and houses linked with arms factories.
- The ways of transport built for the war ( aviation, railway, etc,…).
- Civil engineering buildings generated for the war ( bridges, bunkers, shelters). Fortifications and defence batteries.
- Documental Sources and documents for the study of War Industrial Heritage. Militar libraries and files.
- The recovering of original troop models, attire and arms. (Especialized associations).
- Control and repression equipment concentration or extermination camps, etc).

According to this, the industrial itinerary that we suggest is a visit to the factory places related to the arm production preservated in Asturias, and exactly, the arm factories in Trubia and de la Vega in Oviedo.
