In Rute are the 'Museums of the aniseed liquor of Rute and Spain', which show, in a first part, the true history of anise in the municipality and, in a second area, that of the rest of Spain, being located in its showcases representations of all the Spanish provinces and even the former national colonies. More than 8,267 original pieces and 6,208 Spanish brands make up the exhibition space of approximately 500 square meters. We are different from everyone. We show new pieces that are not exposed, in situ, since what is exposed is only a small part of the total work done. Likewise, we open showcases, teaching and explaining much of the secrets that are hidden in them. In these Museums, in addition to showing the true history of the most important drink in the world - aniseed brandy, medicinal beverage with 27 healing properties, manufactured in more than 3,000 villages in Spain and more than 10,000 distilleries -, 6,208 brands can be contemplated, and the totality of what has come into existence will be progressively shown. We show the history of the Spanish signage, the glass bottle, the lithographic label, the graphic arts and lithographers, the invoice and the old advertising (now known as "marketing" or marketing). In the same way, the Museums of the aniseed brandy offer a selection of artisanal and natural spirits and liquors of the brand 'La flor del fresno', made 100% in their own way in Rute with original recipes from 1880, highlighting the coffee liqueur 'rosolíz' or distilled sweet anise, among others. Also, our permanent exhibition on the history of the toy is free of charge. A representation of the countries where best toys have been manufactured and the brightest brands in Spain are contemplated therein. We show, thus, toys that reach 130 years old, most of them in perfect operation and accompanied by their original packaging.

Guided walking tours through Cordoba's mysteries.

This Museum-House is unique in the world as it shows the recovery of the original Omeya techniques to work on the leather used like decoration. All this thanks to our master Mr. Ramón García Romero and Jose Carlos Villarejo García, research artists on Caliphal and sumptuary techniques which were developed in Cordoba in the 10th century. In particular, you will learn on the genuine Omeya labour regarding their git-leather panels (guadamecíes), which became extraordinarily famous around the world due to their esthetic quality and outstanding beauty. This gilt-leather panel (guadamecí) was a really appreciated piece which showed a plant and geometric design. It consisted in gilding the leather so as, later, to get it polychromed and ironed and used almost exclusively in important houses and palaces.
