About Museo de la Sidra de Asturias

Asturian cider, from orchard to table

Nava's Museo de la Sidra de Asturias explores sidra as both a drink and a cultural marker. Opened in 1996, the museum follows the cider-making process from apple cultivation through pressing, fermentation, and bottling, placing the craft within the everyday customs and social traditions of Asturias.

The visit is designed to explain more than production: it also introduces the ways cider is served and shared, and the role it plays in local gathering places. The museum's wider program connects visitors with cider presses, or llagares, and sidrerías across the region, making Nava a natural starting point for learning how the beverage is made and experienced.
