Fábrica de cerveza El Águila Negra

Fábrica de cerveza El Águila Negra is a brewery factory in Colloto with multiple industrial buildings including a malthouse, administrative structures, and tall grain silos along General Lacy Street. The entire site now serves as a cultural center with exhibition spaces, archives, a cafeteria, and an auditorium for public use.

Built in 1912, this brewery facility operated continuously until production stopped in the 1980s. The site received official protection as a cultural asset in 1990 because of its industrial heritage and architectural value.

The arts center brings people together within these former brewery spaces, creating a meeting place for the community. The restored industrial building shows how the area once depended on beer production as a source of daily work and local pride.

The site is easily accessible by public transportation in Colloto with clear signage throughout the grounds. Visitors should allow enough time to explore the exhibition halls, library spaces, and courtyards at a comfortable pace.

The large metal silos that once held barley for brewing were converted into book storage rooms while keeping their original industrial look on the outside. This creative reuse shows how industrial structures found new purposes without losing their historical character.
