Royal Cloth Factory of Brihuega, 18th century royal textile factory in Brihuega, Spain.

The circular industrial complex includes two rings with a central courtyard, multiple windows for natural light, and rectangular openings across its facades.

King Fernando VI established this manufacturing center in 1750 through a Royal Charter, selecting an elevated location previously occupied by Santa Lucia Chapel.

The factory transformed Brihuega into a manufacturing hub by bringing skilled textile workers, technicians, and artisans from various regions to produce high-quality fabrics.

The building contains two levels: a ground floor supported by central pillars with vaulted ceilings and an upper floor designated for looms and spinning operations.

The gardens, created in the early 19th century, incorporate French Versailles design elements commissioned by the wife of industrialist Justo Hernandez Pareja.
