Unamuno House Museum

A writer's refuge in Fuerteventura

Miguel de Unamuno’s house is in the old part of Puerto de Cabras. This is the place where the writer was welcomed after being exiled by Primo de Rivera in 1924. Miguel de Unamuno travelled around Fuerteventura for almost half a year. He was inspired by and reflected on the beauty of the local area in articles and sonnets. His old house has become a museum where visitors can admire a typical bourgeois family home in Fuerteventura with luxury items such as a phonograph and typewriter.

Miguel de Unamuno commemorative sculpture

The Miguel de Unamuno Museum offers free admission from Monday to Friday. The site is closed on Saturdays, Sundays, and during holidays. You can access the area by car or on foot. A commemorative sculpture of the writer can be found at the entrance door.
