Museo Etnológico
Museum in a 19th-century town house on fishing, the pasa raisin trade and local crafts, a short walk from the castle.
In a 19th-century town house in Denia, the Ethnology Museum covers the working life of the town: fishing, the pasa raisin trade that shaped its economy, and local crafts. It stands a short walk from the castle and the Asunción church.
History
The house itself shows how the town bourgeoisie lived in the 1800s, when raisin exports filled the port with warehouses and merchants.
What to see
Rooms on fishing gear, raisin drying and packing, and craft workshops, tracing how the pasa trade filled the port with warehouses in the 1800s. It is the third stop of the historic-core trio with the castle and the parish church.
Tips for your visit
