Pottery Museum (Museu del Fang)

Large selection of ceramics and pottery

Updated

The Museu del Fang (pottery museum) aims to promote the many different techniques, shapes and functions that clay has had in different cultures.

Pottery has played an important role in Mallorcan society throughout the ages and clay pottery is an important part of Marratxí's heritage.

The museum focuses mainly on traditional Mallorcan clay pieces and more precisely on local pottery. Because of the industrialisation and substitution of clay with other materials, original clay pieces are becoming more rare and so the purpose of this museum is to display and preserve pottery for future generations.

Whilst you are in Marratxi you could also follow the Ruta del Fang - a tourist route that takes you around some potters workshops and stores.

 

When to come

Call in advance to arrange your visit as the museum is not open every day - Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays between 09:00 and 14:00 are your best bet.

How to get passes

 It's free entry.
