Sequero de Orea Visitor Centre

A building with forestry history

The sequero was a specialized forestry building equipped with a masonry kiln used to dry harvested pine cones and release pine seeds. These seeds were sent to state forestry nurseries to grow pine saplings used in large-scale mountain reforestation.

The exhibition

Dedicated to the people of the Alto Tajo: the principal gallery illustrates traditional livelihoods and woodland trades, past and present, while the upper floor provides a compact audiovisual screening room. Located in Orea.

Planning your visit

Combine the visitor centre with an excursion around Orea to link the indoor explanations with direct observation of the pine forest and heritage trades.

Before visiting
