In order to show the diversity of the route which runs the full length of the Pyrenees. and to publicize the Iron resources that unite the Atlantic to the Med, the exhibition has been organized in five parts: the industrial heritage and the cultural routes, the transformation of the iron, the metal work, mines and cultural landscapes.

In Andorra, the exhibition is accompanied by an exhibition of pieces from the Cultural Heritage fund that illustrate the work of the forgers and the blacksmiths from the production of the dirty metal to the final object.
