The Molí de l’Oli Interpretation Centre in Cervera del Maestre, in Castellón, is housed in an industrial-style building with medieval origins that remained in use until the first half of the 20th century. Throughout that time, it was dedicated to the production of olive oil, a key product in this area.

Today, this interpretation centre in Cervera del Maestre is a museum showcasing tools once used in farming—everyday objects that are all the more valuable for the insight they offer into how the land has traditionally been worked in this region. Its permanent exhibition brings visitors closer to a way of life closely tied to the land, in an engaging and dynamic way. Carefully recreated scenes place the mill itself at the centre, making it easy to understand how this essential facility once operated.

It’s a must-visit if you’re in Cervera del Maestre, a destination well known for climbing and other outdoor activities. The town is also home to an impressive fortress castle and is popular with hiking enthusiasts.

The Molí de l’Oli Interpretation Centre completes an appealing visitor experience that can begin with a simple walk through the oldest streets of the town. Set on a small hill and crowned by its beautiful bell tower, Cervera del Maestre is well worth exploring. Add it to your plans and rediscover the Baix Maestrat.
