DATA OF INTEREST
DESCRIPTION

Located in the old Nacimiento mill building, alongside the Majaceite river, the Benamahoma Water Ecomuseum is an effective testimony to the many ways in which humans inhabiting this mountain range have put the element of water to use, from prehistoric times up to the present day.

Whilst at the museum, visitors will learn of ecological importance of the climate system and water cycle in the Sierra de Grazalema Natural Park, the area with the highest rate of rainfall in all of Spain. Additionally, you will be able to see reproductions of traditional buildings and tools related to the world of flour and oil mills, fulling mills for treating wool which the textile industry of Grazalema is based on, bakeries and other trades, which, in the past, depended on the power of water.

This facility is part of a range of interesting attractions for visitor, including the source of the river itself, the start of the path that leads to El Bosque and an old fulling mill converted into a fish farm.
