    Tips

    January 2, 2024

    The Guirra lime kiln complex is located in La Guirra Bay, between the marshes and Caleta de la Hondura, in Caleta de Fuste, within the municipality of Antigua.

    The ovens are located at the mouth of the Miraflor Gorge, very close to Playa de la Guirra and the port of Caleta de Fuste. The complex consists of three kilns, a warehouse and the lime shed, as well as a cistern with a capacity of about 300 cubic meters.

    For centuries, the lime industry alleviated the crisis of the Majorera economy by requiring a large workforce and not being dependent on the weather like ceramic production. This material, intended for construction, represented Fuerteventura's industrial activity par excellence.
