"The history of this factory that dates back to 1790, begins with the Verguinha Factory and Crestuma Iron Arches, unit that belonged to the Agriculture General Company of Alto Douro Wines. This factory was intended to support the agricultural industry, there are essentially manufactured iron arcs for kites and Tone, it is also known that the produced casting machines for other industries. In 1825, employed about 40 workers and was a foundry equipped with the latest technology at the time. Later, and a socio-economic scenario of crisis, the debts accumulated this company up and the plant was sold, after giving rise to the appearances of spinning mills, one of which we are here referring to.

Thanks for the comment. When I visited this factory have not found any vigilante, but access was helped by a former employee. As for buildings and palace which are above, não foi possível visitar porque já se encontram vendidos.

I appreciate your comment about this job. However, as can see the abandoned documents photographed, it is actually ribbons Factory and Cotton Spinning – With AC and Morais. There, slightly above this location, another great plant abandoned with the acronym CFC (Crestuma Wiring Company). I think, later, there back to try shooting and historicizing, if possible, esta estrutura.
