Hidden Air-Raid Shelter beneath Palma Schoolyard to Become Part of Lessons

Answer

Why did construction at IES Ses Estacions in Palma stop after the discovery?

Work paused because the underground structure needed to be protected and incorporated into the building plans. The foundations had to be rearranged so the shelter could be preserved rather than damaged. That changed the project, but it also protected an important piece of Palma’s history.
