Bres Craft Center
- Taramundi
- Craft
The Bres Craft Center is located in the old Casona de Villanueva, in the center of Bres, 5 kilometers from the capital of the council. This center was conceived as a facility to facilitate the knowledge and enhancement of craft activities, both new and traditional of the region.
The Center has three distinct areas: workshop area, exhibition and sales area, and training classroom. This provides a suitable place for artisans to work and an environment where visitors can learn first-hand about the manufacturing processes of the different crafts installed there. It is also intended that this space will serve as a forum for dialogue, training and exchange of knowledge among professionals in the sector.
The Center opened its doors to the public in July 2013 and currently has a craftswoman: Inés Barcia (loom).
