The Leioa City Council has initiated the recovery of treasures buried 25 years ago, in the year 2000. According to projections, approximately 2,000 tupperware containers will be unearthed. The containers were stored in five receptacles, and municipal workers have already begun the process of excavating them and transporting them to the council offices for sorting, coding, and cataloging.

As the Leioa City Council recalled on social media, the original burial was a public and community event carried out by local children and young people in an area adjacent to the town hall. This initiative is also considered the starting point for the Herrigune project, aimed at fostering citizen participation and collective learning.

Now, a quarter of a century later, participants will have the opportunity to retrieve their treasures on September 19th, as part of the Citizen March for the Pedestrian Crossing organized by the Council. The march will conclude at Pinosolo Park, where the tupperware containers will be waiting for their owners. The council anticipates the event will be a moving intergenerational meeting point.

Furthermore, with the participants' permission, the contents of the tupperware containers may become part of a public graphic exhibition, aiming to preserve and share the emotional and collective memory generated around the initiative.

The Council, however, intends to continue the project by involving new generations. Therefore, at the Pinosolo farmhouse, local children will be able to request a new tupperware container to store an object, message, or memento they wish to preserve for the future. These new treasures will be buried on October 31st, coinciding with Leioa's 500th anniversary, with a commitment to reopen them in another 25 years.
