La Felguera, Industrial parish in Langreo, Spain

La Felguera stands as the main district of Langreo municipality in northern Spain, positioned at 203 meters elevation with a population of 21,000 residents.

The establishment of the Felguera Factory by Pedro Duro in 1858 transformed this agricultural area into a major Spanish iron and steelworks production center.

The Pinacoteca Eduardo Úrculo art gallery and the International Tales Competition contribute to the literary and artistic development of this Spanish community.

Located 18 minutes from Oviedo by car, La Felguera maintains modern facilities at the Valnalón technology center and houses the Museum of Siderurgy.

La Felguera achieved multiple industrial firsts in Spain, including the production of sheet steel for shipbuilding in 1887 and refractory bricks in 1896.
