The council of Fuerteventura has renewed the Ecomuseo La Alcogida, located in Tefía, with a series of rehabilitation performances and new museum. In this way, the space reopens the public with a new value of its ethnographic elements, including for the first time guided tours.
Regarding the museum content, the permanent exhibitions of houses and workshops have been implemented, and the temporary exhibition on traditional architecture of Fuerteventura has been updated. In addition, the contract has been awarded for the restoration of a series of pieces of great heritage value that are part of the permanent exhibition of the Ecomuseo La Alcogida.
"Visitors can also enjoy a guided tour of the ethnographic aspects of majorera culture." Guided tours will take place every hour, during the center's opening hours, from 09.30 to 15.30 hours.
"These improvements have resulted in a lively and dynamic,more interactive museum," explains Cu ltura's counselor, Historical Heritage and Cultural Broadcast, Andrés Briansó.
