Guided tour of an old mill transformed into a cultural classroom where you can get to know Onís in a different way: with the help of its people and through its most deeply rooted traditions, which are also the most modern today.
The ground floor recreates a mid-20th-century "chigre" (bar) and has a cider press . It is decorated with photographs and ethnographic objects that pay homage to the people and knowledge of Onís's past.
The first floor uses a contemporary aesthetic to symbolize the Onís of the present. The one who has picked up the baton of tradition, adapting it to new times. Here the microfilm “Onís in person” is projected about some values and cultural features of the council.
