Shipyards and Ironworks
The shipyards of Pasaia, Orio, and Mutriku and the ironworks of the Deba and Cadagua river valleys form a single industrial belt sustained for centuries by Pyrenean charcoal and Vizcayan iron ore. We modernize the forges with Walloon and Swedish hammer techniques, lay down keels on Dutch designs at the Real Astillero of Pasaia, and contract Manuel de Cosío to design the new fleets of three-deckers for the Crown. This industrial complex remains the only place in Iberia capable of producing first-rate ships of the line from raw ore to launch within its own region.
