This book explores the vestiges of the industrial revolution in Aragon, Spain. Although industrialization in this region was later and more limited compared to other areas such as the Basque Country or Catalonia, there are still valuable examples closely related to Aragonese history. The book highlights the sugar factories, factories dedicated to the production of sugar and beet derivatives, which spread in Aragon at the beginning of the 20th century after the loss of Cuba as a source of cane sugar production. These sugar factories were in service until the 1960s, when the cultivation of beets was abandoned.
