Villa Winter, Historical residence in Cofete, Fuerteventura, Spain
The Villa Winter features a large tower with 360-degree views, two main floors, a basement, and walls measuring 1.4 meters in thickness.
German engineer Gustav Winter constructed this residence between 1937 and 1946, during a period marked by speculation about its connections to military activities.
The building represents a fusion of European architectural elements with Canary Islands construction methods, incorporating local materials and adaptation to the climate.
Located in the remote southwestern part of Fuerteventura, the villa opens for visitors from Tuesday to Sunday between 15:00 and 17:00.
The basement contains unexplored chambers and thick walls, leading to numerous theories about potential hidden tunnels and underground facilities.

Fuerteventura, the second largest island in the Canary Islands, is characterized by its diverse landscapes and notable geological features. The island houses spectacular formations such as the white dunes of Corralejo Natural Park, extending over more than 10 kilometers, the 70-million-year-old Ajuy caves, and accessible volcanoes like Calderon Hondo with its 70-meter-deep crater. The coastline offers expansive beaches like the one in Cofete, 12 kilometers long and backed by the Jandía mountains, as well as Lobos Island, a volcanic nature reserve with black sand beaches. Beyond its natural assets, Fuerteventura offers cultural experiences such as the Grain Museum, which traces the island's agricultural history, and activities suitable for all ages with Oasis Park with 3,000 animals or Aqua Water Park in Corralejo. The island's climate allows visits year-round, with mild temperatures and ample sunshine promoting exploration of its natural parks, historical sites, and preserved coastline.
