Returning to our articles about leather museums, now we refer to a museum in Allariz, a nice place in the province of Ourense.

It is located next to the Arnoia River, where there are many tanneries like, Torre Lombarda factory, Curtido Vilanova tannery, A Casqueira factory, Curtidos de Meire factory y the Nogueiras family tannery (where is located the museum).

We started  our articles on leather-related museums referring to the closest to us:

Leather Museum of Ubrique

Located in the old Convent of Capuchins (right picture). The funds are up items related to Ubrique leather from diverse backgrounds: both machines and tools and parts manufactured in Ubrique throughout its history. The idea of the museum is building on real objects and phenomena being based on the comparative information of the documents consulted and provided by our elders.
