El Barato Argentino in Agustoni and La Esquina Auge in Anguil, joined to this initiative that turns these historic buildings into museums, restaurants or shops in activity, to preserve the La Pampa’s identity.

The announcement was made today at the Secretariat of Tourism of the Province, with the presence of the head of the area, Saúl Echeveste; the Provincial Director of Artistic Arts, Jesús Gallego; the mayor of Agustoni, Federico Bogarín; the Tourism representative of the municipality of Anguil, Rosela Biaggetti, together with the representatives of the General Branch Stores.

**El Barato Argentino was inaugurated in 1953, retains its original façade, while the main hall, in a modern Scandinavian style, revitalizes and renews its more than 70 years of history. Currently it continues to operate and offer products for the countryside and the city.

La Esquina Auge is a building from the early twentieth century that housed the historic Auge Store. It retains its original structure and was restored as a historical and cultural heritage site in 2023.

Echeveste remarked that “these two new spaces that have history, have memory and build community every day. This network rescues history, but it also rescues ways of life, ways of meeting, talks, business concretion, purchases that society made at that time and that today we call again to enjoy these new spaces”.

“For tourism it is very important because we say that tourists are not only looking for consolidated and traditional destinations, but they are also looking for original and authentic experiences and what better way to visit these warehouses than to visit these warehouses. From the Secretariat of Tourism we are deeply convinced that you cannot defend yourself, you cannot promote, you cannot feel pride in what you do not know, you cannot love for what is foreign,” he added.

He added that “since June 9 we have a really novel initiative, in conjunction with the Ministry of Social Development, will be make available to the people of La Pampa who are photographers, influencers, creators of audiovisual content, so they will tour the network of the Ramos Generales stores. Of the nine warehouses that are distributed throughout the province of La Pampa, they will be able to disseminate and publicize these new spaces that the Province has.”*
