The Fundidora de Fierro y Acero de Monterrey lit its blast furnaces in 1900 and for nearly a century forged the steel that built Mexico. Today, that same ground is a 144-hectare public park where industrial heritage lives alongside culture, sports and nature.<\/p>

Since 2001, Parque Fundidora is a Site Museum of Industrial Archaeology<\/strong>: 16 historic buildings and 127 pieces of steelmaking machinery are preserved as a living testimony of our history.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
