This museum was a cool 2 euro each to enter. We had the place mostly to ourselves as we saw only two or three couples also in the museum. There were fishing and boating related items on the first floor. Baskets,ceramics, farming implements, traditional costumes, and more on each of the four floors. There was also a fantastic spiral staircase made of stone and un-supported from the bottom. Three different spirals share the same space with a central void in the middle. Made from granite and made around 1700, these stairs had remained intact for over 300 some years.
The entrance
A very ornate doorway
The inner courtyard
Boats and finshing nets
A diorama showing how the boats were constructed
See the saw?
Next door is a church, go figure!
A row of grist stones
The Galician alphabet? No these were the symbols used to brand the cattle. Hoot iron branding has fallen out of style and not freeze branding is in
Now that is a pot of tea!
A tiny scarecrow in the diorama
A happy carpenter
When walking on the stairs they seem like a regular stair step
But from below you can see through the individual slabs
A most beautiful effect
Basket cases
Probably warm but certainly flamable
High art
Lace making
Bagpipes
A wooden chandalier
Diorama of a village
Traditional dwellings
All dressed up for a parade
On our way back
A doorway without a building
Hills aplenty
Almost home
Ahhh the green area next to the hotel
