The Wisdom of the People
Craftwork is an important part of the Andalusian heritage, which has crossed our borders thanks to its quality and variety.
As well as having a high ethnological value, it is an important production sector that creates employment, in which traditional trades coexist harmoniously with new product innovations.
On the artisan map of Andalusia we can find 11 Areas of Artisan Interest and 50 Points of Artisan Interest, including some 200 workshops spread across the region, where renowned master craftsmen, including luthiers, use materials like marble, ceramics, leather, wrought iron, glass and textiles.
