A complex on the Imperial Canal of Aragón promoted by Ramón Pignatelli, with two elliptical locks, a sluice house, a mill and fulling mills, and a port with warehouses. Work on the locks began in 1780 and ended in 1782, the water arrived in 1784 and the complex was inaugurated in 1786. Today it works as a small hydroelectric plant and as a historic site around which a park is laid out.
