La Tèrmica de Roca Umbert invites visitors of all ages to immerse themselves in an immersive space in which they can interpret the historical, industrial, social and cultural past of the Roca Umbert factory, built in 1904 in Granollers (Barcelona). Until the closure of its doors in 1991, the factory has lived through moments such as the Spanish Civil War and the Franco regime, the business expansion of the 1950s and the textile sector’s crises.
One of its most important milestones was the construction of the Thermal Power Plant in 1951, which allowed the facilities to be supplied with steam and electricity. The energy savings or self-sufficiency of that time reveals to the public the parallels with the current transition that allows reversing the consequences of climate change and the energy crisis.
