El Molinar d'Alcoi

The El Molinar industrial complex extends along the Molinar River, featuring multiple buildings constructed for manufacturing and water-powered production facilities.

The industrial structures of El Molinar date back to the 18th and 19th centuries, built upon medieval foundations during the early stages of industrialization.

The Els Solers factory within El Molinar represents the First Water group of factories, which pioneered the utilization of river power for industrial processes.

A walking trail through the complex allows visitors to examine the architectural elements of the industrial buildings and observe the surrounding natural environment.

The restoration efforts included copper panel installations on trusses and reinforcement of the vaults to preserve the original industrial architecture.
