Description
This museum, despite its small space, houses a large collection of ancient objects of daily use to the traditional serrana life, and is in an absolutely surprising place, where it is not expected to find something like this. It is shortly before the village of Los Anchos and transmits authenticity, not only for the pieces it exposes, but also for the traditional cortijo it occupies and for the extraordinary landscape of which it is part.
The museum offers us a tour of different aspects of traditional life, such as the stays of the serrana house, the rural school, the barbershop, the old inn, the stable and the trades related to the forest. There is also a small shop for crafts and food.
The small and isolated valley of Los Anchos, surrounded by mountains, is of an overwhelming beauty, especially in the autumn, when the wings of the stream become yellow.
The village of Los Anchos is one of the best preserved in the Natural Park. Very close to it there are two others around which you have to take a walk, which are those of Prado Maguillo and La Cañada del Saucar. From this last part a senderist route marked PR-A 196, which goes up to the Calar del Cobo, specifically to the Puntal of the Mass, one of the best viewpoints of the Natural Park. In Prado Maguillo there are also signposted trails.
