    Tips

    Originally the artist's home; he discovered the property for himself when he saw a fig tree protruding from an underground lava bubble while walking through a lava field. He then decided to buy the property, but the owners gave him the piece of land, which they considered worthless.

    Here, Manrique brought nature and art into harmony in an impressive way by building his house and integrating the five lava bubbles.

    His works can be found practically all over the island, which he has had a significant influence on.

      A film documentary about the artist is shown outside on the terrace, giving a good overview of him and important topics on Lanzarote.

        For me, the house is as extravagant as Salvador Dalí's villa in Cadaqués. The rooms are very uniquely decorated and are very much oriented to the conditions of the floor (lava rock) (which was the basic architectural design of Manrique). A tour is definitely worth it, as are the exhibitions - but they change.

          Really good place to visit at all ages. Close to Arrecife. You can arrive by road biking easily. The island is really well prepared for road bike. There's a small restaurant and don't forget to visit the house in the underground floor

            Very impressive place; Manrique's life's work 👍

              Extravagant house, you have to be an artist ... Shortly before sunset you can take very nice photos in the area. The next volcanic crater is only 15 minutes away on foot. A museum where luckily you don't have to register online forever in advance.

                The Fundación César Manrique (César Manrique Foundation) is located in the artist's former home in Tahiche, a town in the municipality of Teguise, geographically roughly in the middle of the Spanish Canary Island of Lanzarote, his home island.

                  Walking through two courtyards, you enter a surprising world of personal belongings, tools, found objects and hand-crafted pieces to which Manrique assigned an aesthetic function. All this in a space characterized by noble materials and signs of good taste. The lush vegetation both inside and outside the house helps to convey a calm and cozy atmosphere. In the workshop, which is separate from the house, you can see the original scenario where the artist painted every day, surrounded by pigments, tables with drawings, easels and unfinished paintings that have been kept exactly as the artist left them at his death.
