Very disappointing. Obviously money has been spent recently making the buildings look better but absolutely no information on agriculture, just a few old tools and contraptions, the purpose of which one could only guess and old black and white photos, presumably of farming folk of the island some time ago, maybe thirties and forties, but again no labelling. The gift/souvenir shop had lots of touristy things including jars of local produce such as pesto but was very dusty after the recent sandstorms. Not even the use of the loo was possible as ‘it was being cleaned’. Certainly no animals, no leaflets or labelling, no pictures of produce or crops.

This place gives you a peak into the old country life on the island in a very unpretentious way. A display of the old way of living, tools, grain mills and wine making in a full farm setting.

This wonderful museum is well worth visiting. You certainly understand how difficult working the land on Lanzarotte really is.
