Farga Rossell, La Massana Parish, Andorra

4.5 (54 reviews) Monday: Spent 1-2 hours Ranking #2 in La Massana Speciality Museums

Amazing visit

The Rossell Forge was built between 1842 and 1846 and, except fora short period of inactivity, remained open until 1876. This makes it one of the last active forges in Andorra and a living example of the country's pre-industrial heritage.The Rossell Forge has now become an Interpretation Centre aboutiron. Using audiovisuals and a drop hammer demonstration, it explains the process of transforming iron ore into ingots and their subsequent sale to Catalan markets. The tools used to work with this material arealso on show: bellows, furnace, etc.

Interesting little place.
Really friendly and informative guide, who was able to answer our questions, without difficulty. Especially interesting to see how iron production varied from British historic iron production.

Interesting...if you are interested in the subject!
An excellent audiovisual presentation. Unfortunately I was not interested in the subject, only went because it was part of a tour. There were persons in the group who really enjoyed finding out more about iron works.
