“FROM THE NEW ATALAYA OF JEREZ...”
We are in Jerez... Can you imagine a magical dream where a wise old clockmaker invites you to discover a unique collection in Europe? Would you like to see a workshop in the 19th century housing a perpetual movement machine? Will you dare to follow a mysterious night watchman into the Olympus where the gods enjoy sherry? Would you like to see Andalusian colts galloping towards us on giant screens where two centuries ago the famous wine from Jerez rested? During the Mystery of Jerez tour, they will welcome you to “a mysterious land that knows, when loved, how to transform human tears and sweat into a god’s nectar.” We can enjoy all of this at the LA ATALAYA MUSEUMS, where gardens with century-old trees are now witness to many surprises, with an innovative mix of classical and contemporary culture. This is a firm commitment to cultural and theme tourism, which complements the abundant and varied leisure offer in Jerez and rest of the province of Cadiz, now at the crest of its tourist development. Professionals of the tourist trade, tour operators and specialists in organizing events and incentive conferences now firmly count with this new scene. Senior citizen groups, all types of educational centres and cultural associations can also benefit from this original offering. Individuals of any age can enjoy a few unforgettable hours, filled with surprises, where they will learn in a fun and modern fashion, thanks to splendid personal and professional attention, as well as technical resources unique in Spain. Classical music and pure flamenco, the tic-tac of antique and unique clocks (17th, 18th, and 19th centuries), English bracket sounds, artistic styles of the golden age of Art, scenes from the 16th century that regain life and endless sensations that can only be perceived here. The Palace of Time and Mystery of Jerez museums are located at the edge of the historical centre of the city, in the Barrio de Santiago and just a few metres from the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Arte, Enganches Museum, Bullfighting Museum, emblematic wine cellars, flamenco clubs, and the Botanic Zoo. In short, both museums are located in a must-see city centre, making it possible for tourists to enjoy the authentic spirit of Jerez.
