LagOmar, Museum in a volcanic rock dwelling in Teguise, Spain.
Description
LagOmar is a museum housed in a volcanic rock dwelling in Teguise, featuring both natural and artificial caves. The complex spans multiple levels connected by stone staircases and outdoor pathways, with exhibition spaces, a panoramic restaurant, and event areas on terraces.
History
The building was created in the 1970s as an artistic project by a renowned designer. Later, a famous actor purchased it but lost ownership through a game of chance, leading to a change in proprietorship.
Culture
The space displays works by contemporary local artists throughout its rooms. The design follows Canarian traditions with whitewashed walls and stone details that blend naturally into the volcanic surroundings.
Practical
The location is open on several days each week and offers guided tours along with dining on outdoor terraces. Visitors should plan for substantial walking and climbing, as the uneven terrain and numerous staircases require good mobility, so comfortable footwear is recommended.
Did you know?
The building was constructed around natural cave formations already present in the volcanic landscape. Visitors can observe how artificial expansions seamlessly integrate with the original rock features, creating a unique space where human design merges with geology.
