La Maestranza, Industrial building in Pachuca, Mexico.

The large industrial structure features three levels with identical lateral facades, vertical windows, and corner pilasters made of stone blocks.

The United States Smelting Refining and Mining Company acquired the property in 1906, establishing workshops and a general warehouse near railroad stations.

The facility earned its name La Maestranza as it served as a training center for master builders, carpenters, and blacksmiths.

The building contained advanced equipment for material handling, including cranes, elevators, and storage shelves for industrial supplies and mining parts.

The industrial complex maintained its own locomotives and wagons during the Mexican Revolution to ensure continuous material supply despite railway interruptions.
