135893	Laura_Pizarro_Jacinto	Spain Cáceres	Spanish : “Asociación Nacional de Negocios Turísticos y Souvenirs” (National Association of Tourist and Souvenir Businesses) “asociado nº 447” (member no. 447) Spanish is the main language Souvenirs is a loanword: originally French, borrowed into both English and Spanish with the same meaning (a keepsake, typically from travel) This makes the sticker monolingual Spanish in structure, but with a lexical borrowing that is international.

135895	Laura_Pizarro_Jacinto	Spain Cáceres	Main languages present: Spanish : Almost all posters are in Spanish (concerts, cultural events, excursions, rentals, etc.). English : Appears in some brand names and event titles: "DECATHLON" (store name in background) Concert poster: Bee Jinx (band name, English words) "Rock", "Festival" (international terms, often borrowed). Commercial: Travel agencies, excursion offers, rental ads, restaurants. Cultural: Festivals (guitar, music, rock concerts, local fairs). Entertainment: Posters for concerts, DJs, shows. Housing: “SE ALQUILA” (For Rent). Activism/Associations: One small poster mentions a manifestation (protest). Strong use of visual variety : colorful posters, different fonts, images to attract attention. Youth culture (music, festivals), local economy (excursions, rentals), and globalization (English in band names and events). Multilingualism is minimal : English is not for communication but for symbolic prestige (cool, modern, international). The board acts as a community communication space : locals, businesses, and cultural groups all compete for visibility. This reflects Spanish monolingual dominance with selective English borrowing. In Extremadura (border with Portugal), one might expect some Portuguese, but here it seems absent: suggests a more local + national Spanish orientation rather than cross-border.	PALRA
136151	Laura_Pizarro_Jacinto	Spain Cáceres	The three panels, placed side by side, are dedicated to the Christian towers of Cáceres. Each one blends historical explanation, multilingual texts, Braille transcription, images, and diagrams. Left panel – “Así es una torre Cristiana” Explains the architectural features of a typical Christian tower. Includes diagrams showing structural elements, such as battlements and defensive details. Contains a comparative section “Diferencias entre las torres” highlighting contrasts with Islamic towers. Includes multilingual translations (English, Portuguese, German, French) and Braille at the center. Photographs of surviving towers illustrate the points. Central panel – “Torres Cristianas en la ciudad” Focuses on the distribution of Christian towers across Cáceres, with a map marking their locations. Provides details on the Torre de Bujaco, one of the city’s most emblematic defensive towers. Texts in five languages (Spanish, English, Portuguese, German, French), with Braille transcription in the middle section. Several photographs show towers in different states of preservation, making visible the contrast between intact and truncated examples. Right panel – “El Desmoche de la Reina Isabel” Already described in detail in the previous entries. It explains the truncation of noble towers ordered by Isabella I of Castile after the succession conflict against Juana la Beltraneja. Contains a genealogical chart, portraits, a battle illustration, Braille transcription, and a closing reflection titled “El perfil imposible de Cáceres”. Thematic Unity: The three panels together form a coherent narrative: from the architecture of a typical Christian tower (left), to their urban presence in Cáceres (center), and finally to their political transformation through truncation (right). Multilingualism: As with the previous panels, each includes sections in English, Portuguese, German, French, and Spanish, reflecting the city’s openness to international visitors. Accessibility: All three panels include Braille transcriptions, a consistent design choice that foregrounds inclusivity in the museum’s interpretive strategy. Multimodality: Visual diagrams (architectural schematics, maps, genealogies) help simplify complex concepts. Photographs provide evidence of surviving towers. Illustrations (battles, heraldic motifs) add narrative and symbolic depth. Place Identity: The panels emphasize that Cáceres’ current urban profile — with its truncated towers — is not a neutral architectural accident, but the direct result of dynastic struggles and royal authority. This situates the built environment as a text, readable through language, images, and history.	PALRA
