Museu del Tèxtil de la Comunitat Valenciana
Opened in 2022 in the former Manuel Revert textile factory beside the Clariano river, it recalls how the Ontinyent-Alcoi-Bocairent triangle drove the Valencian textile industry. It displays looms from different eras, spinning and weaving tools and over 70 exhibits dating from the 18th century to today, spread across four rooms.
Ontinyent, Alcoi and Bocairent made up the Valencian textile triangle for generations, and the Museu del Tèxtil de la Comunitat Valenciana has told that story since 2022 inside the former Manuel Revert factory, on the banks of the Clariano river.
