Summary
A comprehensive analysis of the restoration interventions on Santa María de Tobed, a UNESCO World Heritage Site representing Mudejar architecture in Aragón, reveals critical insights into its 50-year conservation history. The study uncovers previously undocumented or unpublished data, clarifying the sequence and impact of restoration projects from the 1970s to 2001—prior to its UNESCO designation. It highlights recurring bibliographic errors and the need for precise documentation to understand the monument's current state. By integrating historical records with contemporary conservation practices, this research provides a corrected narrative of Tobed’s transformations, offering a model for preserving similar heritage sites.
