Fray Bentos Industrial Landscape
World Heritage
Uruguay
🎧 Listen to Introduction
Located on land jutting into the Uruguay River west of the town of Fray Bentos, the industrial park was created following the development of a factory established in 1859 to process meat produced in the nearby vast prairies. The site illustrates the entire process of meat procurement, processing, packaging and distribution. It includes the buildings and equipment of the Liebig Meat Extract Company, which exported meat extracts and corned beef to European markets from 1865, and the Anglo Meat Packing Plant, which exported frozen meat from 1924. Through its physical locations, industrial and residential buildings, and social institutions, the site illustrates the entire process of global meat production.
