Resumen
Following the development of the mining industry of the sulphur in the hamlet of Las Minas de Hellín (Albacete), especially during the 18th - 19th, this rural area has currently been totally abandoned fruit of the bankruptcy of their exploitation. Despite its devastating closure in 1960, the town mining, although very deteriorated, is preserved in our days enclosing relics of a past that managed to position this mining area as the first national. All these traces of the extractive activity have been modeling different scenarios that have become (especially for local communities) in authentic concerning symbolic and cultural, that now have the opportunity of framing in a new stage of transition given the opportunities offered by its mining heritage, through work of conversion and restoration, which constitute one of the main strategic lines in local development.
