Museo Etnográfico de Azuaga
About This Museum
Tucked away on a quiet street in the heart of Azuaga, this museum feels less like an institution and more like a portal. It grew from a local desire to preserve the soul of the region's rural past, transforming an old building into a vibrant repository of memory. You don't just see history here; you feel it in the weight of a hand-forged plow and smell it in the lingering scent of old leather. It’s a deeply personal and evocative journey through time.
Collection Highlights
The space is anchored by an almost complete blacksmith's forge, its tools laid out as if the smith just stepped away for lunch. Nearby, a meticulously recreated traditional kitchen, complete with copper pots and a hearth, tells its own story of domestic life. Don't miss the displays of intricate shepherd's crooks and traditional 'monteras' hats, each piece whispering tales of daily toil and celebration.
