Museo PEG Los Telares - Parque Etnográfico de La Gomera
Open-air ethnographic museum in Hermigua with the island's largest private collection, an ecological farm and a closing tasting of local Gomeran products.
The Ethnographic Park of La Gomera, in Hermigua, centres on a 5000 m² traditional organic farm with banana trees, sapped palm trees, avocados, mangos, aloe, orchards and exotic flowers, alongside the crops typical of the island's terraces.
The grounds preserve a water-powered gofio mill, a reconstruction of the one that stood on the farm and one of the last in the valley. It also holds the largest ethnographic collection on the island, divided into themed areas showing objects, customs and folklore of La Gomera, with traditional farm animals such as goats.
Multi-language audio guides, a 3D experience and a shop of La Gomera handicrafts and produce complete the visit.
