Situated one next to the other the House museum and the Peasant Monument were built to immortalize the hard work of the peasant community of Lanzarote whose efforts materialized in "La Geria"an unique production of agricultural goods from a dry and arid land.

The Peasant Monument also known as the Monument to Fertility, was created by César Manrique with water tanks from old fishing boats and elevated onto a rock platform. The strength of this work is found in the mixing of local and tradicional architectural elements such as the bright white colour and round lines with the modern use of recycled materials and assembled as a meccano. The sculpture placed in the geographic centre of Lanzarote has the effect of a look out and from its 15 metres of height of superposed boat tankers becomes a water metaphor, the water element has become a symbol of the peasants hard life.

The House Museum was an old restored small village, enlarged by the artist, who in the 60's was involved in a campaign to rescue and keep the traditional architectural style of the island. In this building César used the elements of his ideal architecture, white fachade, door and window green wooden frames, rounded shapes, flat roofs...

The House Museum contains an extraordinary collection of utensils and instruments used by the peasant community throughout history, to work, transport, store products or simply to live. Through them, the visitors can discover a great part of the history of the island and its traditions, most of which are, nowadays still celebrated. Something also very interesting inside the museum are the crafts workshops: ceramics, embroidery and workshops as well as an old kitchen full of domestic objects of the old life in Lanzarote. To show the quality of the products from the island, the restaurant offers a great variety of local cooking, fish, potatoes (papas), "sancochos" and typical sweets, all this in an atmosphere that will make us travel back in time.
