The architectural complex of the former Brutau textile factory, in Argelaguer, is one of the most significant examples of La Garrotxa’s industrial past. Located next to the Fluvià River, this site reflects the key role that the textile industry played in the region’s economic development.

The complex preserves several factory buildings and production-related elements, offering insight into how industrial activity and daily life were organized. Its connection to the river, essential for powering the factory, remains one of the most defining features of the site.

La Brutau is a place where industrial heritage and landscape come together. It evokes a period of transformation in the territory and invites visitors to discover a lesser-known side of La Garrotxa, shaped by labour and industry.
