House-Museum of Silk (Requena)
The Requena House-Museum of Silk is located at the former centre of the College of High Silk Art of this town and is the most significant witness of the silk history of Requena. The splendour of its silk trade resulted in the foundation of its College of High Silk Art in 1725, which was constituted as an institution independent from its equivalents in Valencia or Toledo. Requena, with an approximate 600 looms, became one of the main silk production centres in all of Spain.
