The Firgas House of Culture is undoubtedly one of the most emblematic buildings in the municipality. Located in the heart of the town, it was built in 1872 as a hostel for tourists who came to the municipality to test the healing properties of the water from the Azuaje Gorge. From the 1940s, the building slowly fell into disrepair and it was not until 1993 that the renovation began, which was completed in 1995 and also gave the library a new home.
The municipal public library has free internet access and a study room.
