These days they are removing the scaffolding from the restoration work carried out by the Galician Regional Government’s Department of Culture, at a cost of over €550,000. This work was much needed, as water was leaking through the dome every time it rained. The problem appears to be solved, although it will require regular maintenance, especially to prevent the growth of plants, lichen, etc., which can gradually damage the dome.
The scaffolding for the elevator used to transport restoration materials and dome scaffolding elements still needs to be removed from the rear.
