El Ter Industrial Museum – Can Sanglas

The El Ter Industrial Museum or MIT, in Manlleu, is a museum about the territory and society whose impact goes beyond the building walls and the collection within, in order to emphasize the value of the industrial and natural heritage of the middle basin of the Ter. The MIT is in Can Sanglas, an old spinning factory from 1841, which houses three permanent exhibitions: "La fàbrica de riu", "La societat industrial" and "Els rius mediterranis" and the Mediterranean Rivers Study Centre, or CERM. In addition, it organises temporary exhibitions and different activities to get to know the area's unique industrialisation process and the biodiversity of the Ter and other Mediterranean rivers. Other MIT areas to visit outside Can Sanglas are the Borgonyà colony, which has an interpretation centre, and the Rusiñol colony, in Manlleu.
