Museo de Artesanía Textil


Grazalema's delicate wool shawls and blankets rose to fame in the 18th and 19th centuries. At this working textiles factory, 350m northwest of Plaza de España, you can see the original machinery and learn about traditional weaving methods.

The factory sells its locally crafted goods at the Tienda de las Mantas just off Plaza de España.
