The Muleteers's Museum - collection Antoni Ros explains the evolution of transport both goods and people using energies of blood and, at the same time, it shows the relationships between different trades that helped the development of the done muleteer in Igualada. The broad representation of tools and utensils that accumulate these offices, together with the presence of different carts, carriages, saddles and fittings made of Antoni Ros collection a veritable Museum of Arts and crafts applied to the world of transport in Modern Catalonia.
On a whim we visited the historic Catalonean town of Igualada. After seeing the leather Museum it was suggested we eat nearby at the Raco del Traginer. Turns out there is a Carriage Museum upstairs- started by the owner's grandfather. Having been to many museums all around the world we were shocked! What a great place! Everything from the completely outfitted blacksmith shop to the historical collection of personal and commercial carriages dating from the Middle Ages until the automabile age - most in their original and almost perfect condition. I highly recommend you visit this chronicle of mankind's wheeled transportation through the centuries! GT, San Francisco, USA
