Ecomuseo La Alcogida, Rural heritage museum in Puerto del Rosario, Spain

Ecomuseo La Alcogida displays seven restored traditional dwellings from Fuerteventura that document how rural inhabitants once lived. The buildings show how people adapted to the island's dry climate and organized their daily routines.

The village was inhabited until the 1970s, when its last residents left; the municipality renovated the site in the mid-1990s. The seven farmsteads, built with local natural stone, mud plaster and roof tiles, are named after their former owners.

The houses are named after their former owners and hold everyday objects: farm tools, typical toys and craft items. The museum also has a bakery, a pottery, an embroiderer's workplace and livestock, and is at times animated by "residents" in traditional dress.

The museum is located on road FV-207 between Almácigo and Tefía and is accessible by car. Visitors should allow time for guided tours and can participate in interactive workshops, especially if traveling with children.

The buildings are named after their former owners, and the museum is periodically brought to life by "residents" in original traditional costume. The seven farmsteads once belonged to households of differing wealth on either side of the main street.
