Museo del Pimentón (Paprika Museum)
Museo del Pimentón (Paprika Museum) Review
Tucked away in a 17th century row house, this quirky museum tells the history of the locally made paprika, dubbed "red gold," for which Jaraíz de la Vera is probably best known nationally. The museum is spread over three floors, with audiovisual presentations and examples of grinding tools and recipes. The museum is a focal point for the village's annual pepper festival, held in August.
