Can Ros Ethnological Museum: Ibiza’s ways and customs

A walk through the history, customs and everyday life of the island at the Can Ros Ethnological Museum

Ethnological Museum

On the Puig de Missa you can visit the Can Ros Ethnological Museum, one of the old houses of the Puig de Missa, restored and run as a museum since 1994. Getting there is easy: it is the first thing you come to as you climb the slope that leads up to the church from Santa Eulària’s main road. You can go in from the lower side, where a flight of steps winds around an old well, or walk down from the church to the upper entrance.

What you will find in the museum

Inside you will see all kinds of handcrafted objects that were part of everyday life on the island until not so long ago. The highlights are the permanent exhibitions on clothing and jewellery and on winemaking tools. The upstairs porch also gives you superb views.
