Museo del Puro Palmero

The museum draws together several threads around a single product: the history and economy built on tobacco in La Palma, the legends attached to the craft and the controversies that have accompanied it. The work of the torcedores, the artisans who shape the cigar by hand, is central to the account.

Alongside the exhibition, the centre presents a selection of craft production linked to the island tradition. The Parque de Los Álamos places the museum in the mid-altitude belt of Breña Alta, the district where tobacco growing took root on the island.
