The Museum of the Wine El Grifo, occupies the old bodegas, that are constructed on volcanic lava and date from 1775. The constructions are made with austere materials, typically volcanic stone from Lanzarote, wide walls and plasters, the ceilings are maintained with wooden beams originating from old boats. It is visited annually by more than 50,000 people. The ethnographic material which is exposed in the museum dates the end of the XIX beginning of the XX century, where the evolution of the machinery in the elaboration of the wine can be observed as old presses, machinery of bottling, pumps, material of laboratory, as well as old stills, that were used to elaborate brandy.
