Cider Museum

The Cider Museum in Nava is an educational institution dedicated to apple growing and the production of this regional beverage. Its spaces are divided into thematic areas covering different aspects such as pressing, fermentation, bottling, and cider production around the world.

The facility opened in 1996 and became part of a network of ethnographic museums in Asturias. It was established as an institution to preserve knowledge about traditional cider-making for future generations.

The museum shows how cider has been made in Asturias for generations and how it fits into people's daily lives. You can see the traditional ways fruit is pressed, juice ferments, and how locals drink it, which reveals regional customs.

The visit requires little preparation since the exhibits are organized in clear sections and well marked. Allow enough time to explore all thematic areas and understand the details of each production step.

The museum has specialized exhibition areas dedicated to sparkling cider production, a style made with particular techniques. It also displays details about apple trees and their pollination, which visitors often overlook.
