Museo de Aloe de Lanzarote, Aloe vera interpretation center in Arrieta, Spain.
The Museo de Aloe de Lanzarote is an information center in Arrieta dedicated to aloe vera and spans about 150 square meters. The space features informational panels on the walls that explain how the plant is grown and used in the region.
The center opened in 2008 as the first aloe vera museum in the Canary Islands, establishing a new type of visitor attraction. Its opening led to the creation of several other facilities dedicated to the same topic across the islands.
The place shows how aloe vera has been woven into local farming traditions and remains central to how people here work the land today. Visitors see firsthand why this plant matters to the community.
The venue is straightforward to visit and offers guided tours in multiple languages to help all visitors understand the exhibits. Regular hours are maintained, and special sessions can be arranged for larger groups.
An audiovisual room displays content in six different languages, showing how the center reaches visitors from around the world. This makes it a welcoming space for international guests curious about local plant knowledge.
