Visit to the Anchovy and Salt Museum and the anchovy factories

Over the centuries, L’Escala has preserved an industry that gave it fame the world over: that of salting anchovies. The Anchovy and the Salt Museum, which was opened in 2006 in the former abattoir, shows the history of fishing and of salting oily fish from the 16th century to date, and submerges visitors in a time, a heritage and unique knowledge of the Catalan coast.
