About the museum
Fabrika is the museum space set up in the former paper mill of Legazpi. It presents a journey through industrialisation in the Basque Country and through the new ways of living and working it brought, with its social, economic and environmental consequences for the territory.
Visitors discover the most emblematic products and factories of the Basque Country and one of the aspects that has most shaped the Basque character over the last two centuries. Fabrika is part of the Territorio Lenbur of the Lenbur Foundation, shares a building with Chillida Lantoki and is reached through that museum.
