Feria Pinolere

Feria Pinolere is a craft museum in La Orotava that showcases traditional Canarian handwork and its products across several exhibition areas. The collection features pottery, textiles, woven goods, and agricultural implements from different periods, showing the variety of local techniques.

The museum was founded in 1986, growing out of an annual craft fair that celebrated local traditions. This shift from seasonal event to permanent institution helped ensure that regional techniques and knowledge could be preserved for future generations.

Local artisans have shaped the craft traditions displayed here, showing how pottery, weaving, and textile work remain important to island culture. These handmade pieces reflect the daily practices and values that have defined life on Tenerife for centuries.

Workshops throughout the year let visitors try traditional crafting techniques like pottery, weaving, and textile work with guidance from experienced artisans. These hands-on sessions help you understand how the objects in the collections are actually made.

The museum preserves agricultural tools that have been used in farming across this island for centuries, offering insight into how work was done before modern equipment. These implements reveal practical solutions that local farmers developed to work with the island's terrain and climate.
