We began this route of the Industry remembering that if it has east name is because it is going to take to us to know, in addition to other things, leaves from the buildings and warehouses that were constructed at the end of the 19^th century when the phylloxera attacked the French vineyard and the market of that country had to supply of towns like ours, growing the town mainly in warehouses, but also in some houses and  services. Step we will take advantage of to see what we have left.

As in the other routes we located in "la Plaza’l Mercáu” [1], officially Plaza de España and that since already we have said in the other routes began being a small medieval cemetery, "el Fosal de San Juan" and later was urbanized on the 16^th century for market outdoors and like place of public executions. Here we were the old inn, of the 16^th century also, and some traditional eaves in the houses, in addition to being able to imagine where now is us "la Casa Lugar", the yellow building that for of Town Council, the old hermitage of St. John that already in the years that includes our route was in decay, because it had been confiscated in 1836.

 

“La Posada”

 

Also we have the walls of defense of the river with the original foundations of end of the 17^th century, not therefore the wall, demolished several times by the river, and a small bridge for walkers, "el Puente la Plaza", vestige of first, end of the 17^th century also.

So we approached "la Casa Lugar" and began to raise by "la Carrera Auguarón", entering "el Rabal de Carrauguarón", before known like of "San Juan", and we can be fixing while we raised, by hand left, in the sheds of some houses and eaves.

 

“La Puerta los Narros”

 

When we arrived at crossing in Y we took the one from left, "la Cuesta la Lisalta", officially Calle Iglesia Alta, and we continued raising  little by little and entering zone of warehouses, until we arrived at a point to that comes together many streets, "el Parque” [2], where the right one already the typical caves of Cossonda excavated under earth begin to see themselves.

We give a turn in U and we return a little by where we have come quickly taking "la Calle los Envases", that leaves to us by hand left. Here if which we are already in the heat of zone of warehouses, and industry, because if this street has east name is by the factory of metallic "envases", funnels in english, that in her were.

While we walked it we can be observing some of the caves that leave us to the step and is one specially that separates of the street a grating that for of door, thus being able letting see the walker as it is on the inside.

A little advanced more, to the left, we have the cave [3], within the building crossed by a pretty shed, where "las Bodegas Tejero", the warehouses oldest of Aragon than still work, stored and aged their wines.
