Casa Fabián Museum. Alquézar

Passing through this old house-museum visitors are immersed in the recent past of the people of Somontano. In the past, a house was a basic unit of production within a rural society whose main objective was self-sufficiency.
Although the main occupations were agriculture and livestock, the lifestyle and economy obliged people to carry out several activities: families made and baked bread, killed pigs for fresh and cured meat, spun wool and flax, made wine and milled oils for oil. In eight different rooms, this museum shows how life was in Somontano by means of a range of objects used daily and also includes an oil mill made in the rock.

The Chuaquín Mill. El Grado

The mill is an interesting example of culturalheritage, ethnographical in character and of industrial architecture. A fine example from the early 20th century, in which mills incorporated new technology and brought together, as in this case, traditional uses of the mill and electrical energy production, thus transforming into mini power stations.
On the ground floor in the machine room, one can find information about the mill machinery, local landmarks: El Grado, the Somontano regionand aspects related to riverbank life: hunting, fishing, the River Cincaand ElGrado dam.
The second floor is dedicated to Parchís (Ludo) bringing together a fantastic collection from the ParchísWorld Championship, which was held, in El Grado and an exhibition of game tables.
The mill is also the departurepoint for three easy hiking tracks.
