Mancha Blanca Visitor Center, Visitor center and museum in Tinajo, Spain.

The center features permanent exhibitions about the Timanfaya volcanic ecosystem, displaying information panels about local flora, fauna, and geological formations.

The facility documents the eruptions that occurred between 1730 and 1736, which transformed one-third of Lanzarote into a volcanic landscape.

Exhibitions within the center present the adaptations of local communities to the volcanic environment through photographs, documents, and historical artifacts.

The center maintains operation hours from Monday to Saturday between 09:00 and 16:00, offering parking spaces for 57 cars and 5 buses.
