On the first day of your visit to Huelva, transport yourself back to the mid-19th century and experience the city’s industrial boom at the hands of the English companies that chose our province to build mining operations. Places such as Casa Colón, inaugurated as a hotel in 1883, the houses of the Reina Victoria Neighbourhood and engineering constructions such as the Tharsis and Compañía de Rio Tinto Piers, will make you relive the history and splendour of the city during those years. In this link you can consult all the points of interest of the British legacy route in Huelva.
