Protecting valued port sculptures from quick photosTwo bronze lions guarding the harbour entrance very quickly became popular photo spots after their arrival. Port officials decided to intervene after continuous handling began raising concerns about wear and tear on the bronze surface. Because restoring multi-million euro bronze sculptures is an expensive process, even accidental damage could mean covering costly specialist repair bills instead of a simple fixed penalty. At Malaga Cathedral (Patio de los Naranjos), protective metal fencing was added around historic courtyard chains after people sitting on them caused stone pillars to shift. Port managers hope the clear warning signs will encourage everyone to enjoy the statues, just not from being sat on top.
