"Forging exists, it is a living trade, that is why I do not ask for support or subsidies, since we have been doing the same thing for 175 years," says Sergi Cadenas, fifth generation of a family dedicated to artistic forging in Girona since the mid-nineteenth century. His unique premises, Ferros de Arte Cadenas, crosses a block and connects Calle Nou (shop) with Calle Sant Francesc (forging). An activity that is a priori noisy and dirty but survives in the city centre. "I have filters above the regulations and the hammer mounted on a silencing block. I could start chopping from 8 in the morning, but I don't because I am aware that I am in the middle of a city. I have never received any complaints from the neighbours."
