In 2023, El Batán del Rey was included within the Industrial Heritage of the Contemporary Age (19th Century), despite its deplorable state of conservation, although it retains its beauty intact. Its beautiful red brick stands out against the surrounding undergrowth.

The King's Fulling Mill, located next to the seventh lock of the North Branch in Herrera de Pisuerga (Palencia), is a quadrangular building of striking red brick, but roofless and clearly in ruins. Its interior is accessible, and you can observe all the fallen beams and the water flowing through it under stone arches. This fulling mill dates from 1791 and is a property linked to the Castile Canal. Initially, it was dedicated to the production of cloth, later being transformed, at the suggestion of Juan de Homar, into a fulling mill for suede and tanning. The factory took advantage of the infrastructure and hydraulic power of the Castile Canal to operate, and by 1800 it had all kinds of machinery for "stripping, descaling, and tanning." Due to its losses, the Royal Factory was converted in 1820 into the La Séptima or El Batán flour mill, later expanded to increase its milling capacity. In 1866, it was partially destroyed by a lightning storm and was recovered in 1869 by a new tenant. The factory fell into disuse at the end of the 19th century, with the last tenant recorded in 1894.
