Description

Composed by pavilions distributed in an area of 29000 square meters, this large industrial group follows the so-called “german model” of slaughterhouse. The main building, composed by several groups of naves perpendicular to a main volume, is a very monumental space and has a church-like spatiality, made possible by the use of reinforced concrete. Visit this space before its transformation into Industrial Museum and in an articulate cultural, social and company program, which is today the municipality’s most important project.
