Hi all.

I am delighted to announce that Wikimedia Spain has started a cooperation with the Fundación Joaquín Díaz, which holds a Museum and an Archive dedicated to old pictures, old musical instruments and cultural research.

The Foundation takes the name of Joaquín Díaz González,[1] probably the most important folklorist and ethnographer on the Spanish region of Castile and León and one of the most importants in Spain.

The first step of our cooperation has been the batch upload of 2764 old pictures of Castile and León (in low resolution for the moment) to Commons, which can be visited at this category.[2]

We will keep working with the Foundation in order to make more batch uploads coming soon.

Hope you enjoy this.

Best regards.
