A new opportunity to explore our Historic District through the eyes of characters from that era.

This summer, the Nuevo Baztán Interpretation Center is offering its signature dramatized tours, which allow visitors to discover, in an entertaining way and guided by two female characters, the inner workings of Nuevo Baztán, the most innovative industrial complex of its time.

The apothecary María de la Puente has managed to concoct a potion to travel to the future. Defying the restrictions imposed on women in the 18th century, she seeks a remedy for the illness of her friend María Francisca de Balanza, wife of Juan de Goyeneche, who feels the need to see if the future has respected the industrial complex that her husband built with such effort, and which constitutes the legacy for their descendants.

Tours will take place in June, July, September, and October, always at 12 noon. You can check the dates below. Please note that this is a free activity with limited capacity and requires prior registration.
