The Royal Artillery Factory of La Cavada ({{lang-es|Real Fábrica de Artillería de La Cavada}}) was an artillery foundry at La Cavada (Riotuerto) in Cantabria, Northern Spain. The foundry was established in 1622 by Jean Curtius with the support of Gaspar de Guzmán, Count-Duke of Olivares and became fully operational 15 years later.[1] Between 1637 and 1835 the facility was responsible for the production of more than 26,000 cannons for ships and fortresses throughout the Spanish Empire.[2] It closed after the defeat of the Spanish at the Battle of Trafalgar.[2] See also
