The Ethnographic Museum of Grandas de Salime, whose official name is Museo Etnográfico de Grandas de Salime «Pepe El Ferreiro», was born in 1984 from the collection gathered by José María Naveiras, who directed it until 2010. It is owned by the Sociedad Pública de Gestión y Promoción Turística y Cultural del Principado de Asturias, and its mission is to gather, preserve, research and disseminate the tangible and intangible ethnographic heritage of the western Asturias comarca. Since 1989 it has occupied the former rectory house and other traditional buildings of the village, with more than 3,000 square metres of exhibition space.
