The Colònia Vidal Museum offers visitors a glimpse into the industrial and social history of Catalonia. Located in Puig-reig, this museum is set in a former textile colony, preserving the essence of early 20th-century industrial life. The guided tours provide insight into the working and living conditions of the time, showcasing original machinery, workers' housing, and community facilities. Visitors appreciate the well-preserved buildings and the informative exhibits that illustrate the daily routines of factory workers and their families. The museum effectively depicts the social structure and the impact of industrialization on rural communities. While some guests find the tour comprehensive and educational, others note that some areas could benefit from more detailed explanations or translations. The authentic setting and the opportunity to step back in time are generally well-received, though a few visitors mention that the experience might be more engaging for those with a specific interest in industrial history.
