Wine and Salt define the history of Chiclana

The Wine and Salt Interpretation Centre is located in the former Bodegas Primitivo Collantes winery, now owned by the Chiclana Town Council.

Inside, there are three large areas. The first, THE SEA, is a large central multi-purpose hall. The second, SALT (three sections), contains information on salt works in Chiclana from the periods of Phoenician and Roman colonization to the boom years in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The third area, WINE (four sections), describes viticulture in Chiclana, which also began with the Phoenicians. In the 16th and 17th centuries, it became a thriving component of the economy as part of trade with the Americas.
