The Territorial System of the National Museum of Science and Technology of Catalunya (MNACTEC) is a singular museum proposal that explains the different areas and processes of industrial society throughout the Catalan territory and in the places where they occurred most significantly.
The 28 independent museum and heritage centres that make up the System explain industrialisation in Catalunya through their collections and/or through the musealisation of the different productive activities that have existed and of which understandable remains are still preserved, constituting our industrial heritage.
Each of the museums and centres that form part of the System highlights its own singularity, with the aim of preserving, researching and enhancing the movable and immovable heritage it holds, in order to analyse a specific aspect of industrialisation in Catalunya.
As a whole, the MNACTEC Territorial System aims to compose the best possible museographic explanation of the process of industrialisation in Catalunya and becomes one of the main assets of contemporary Catalan culture, as well as a major alliance for the dissemination of the values of innovation as a social and economic driving force.
