Royal Glass Factory

Monument · Real Sitio de San Ildefonso, Alfoz de Segovia, Segovia

It was born in 1727 when the master glassmakers Buenaventura Sit and Carlos Sac set up a furnace paid for by the crown to supply the palace with glass and mirrors. The present Neoclassical building, of granite masonry, was raised between 1770 and 1784 after a fire.
