A 17th century forge that has been in operation for nearly five centuries, from its creation until 1978
On the ground floor of a former building, this 1978 th century forge has been found, which has ceased to operate for nearly five centuries, since its creation until. The latest example of the Catalan forge and emblematic of the dynamic industrial activity of Ripoll, it was one of the engines of the region's economy and one of the last activities in the th century of Spain. Production was mainly focused on firearms, keys and grids and barriers. One to two times a month, the furnace of the forge is set up and can be observed by the blacksmiths feeding it of copper falls, which are then hammered then immersed in cold water after the desired form obtained. The recent restoration of the site allows the visit.
