From factories to museums
The textile industry was very important during the
19th century. In Spain, there were many textile
factories in Catalonia, especially in Barcelona.
Textile factories were built near rivers so that the
moving water could power water mills and machines.
The workers lived in communities near the factories.
These communities were small villages with houses,
shops, churches and schools. There was also a large
mansion where the factory owner lived.
As the years went by, the textile factories closed
down and the workers left the communities.
Nowadays, some of these old factories and the
buildings around them have become museums. When visiting the museums you can find
out what life was like in industrial areas during the 19th century.

Firefighters
Did you know that being a firefighter is not a modern
job? There were firefighters as far back as Ancient Rome!
In some countries, firefighting is carried out by
volunteers; but in others, it is full-time work. Firefighting
is a dangerous job, so firefighters have to be physically fit
and strong. They wear special suits to protect them from
the extreme heat, flames and gases caused by fires.
These suits can weigh more than 30 kilograms!
Firefighters work closely with other public and emergency
services, like the police and ambulances. In fact, there is
one number, which coordinates all the emergency
services in all the countries of the European Union. The
number is 112. Memorize it!
