Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

El Museu de l'Anxova i la Sal is a little museum located in Sant Martí d'Empúries, a little town near the ruins of Empúries. It is in la Costa Brava, in Girona region, in Catalonia. Here you can learn about the fishing of sardine (a typical mediterranean fish) and the manufacturer of pure salt from the sea. Very little and interesting.

Worth a stop but beware it is warm in there in the middle of the da. Good history of L'escala from the early settlers to the modern day

This is a small museum but very interesting. English texts were available. I really enjoyed it and there was a degree of interactive materials. Sadly, no tasting. It also houses a tourist information centre.

At first glance a museum about anchovies may not look interesting but after our visit I was enthralled about the history.
On arrival the lady on the front desk recommended the route around the museum and set up the opening film to play in English for us. It gave a short overview of the anchovy industry in the area. An English translation booklet was provided to guide us around what turned out to be a delightful little museum dedicated to the hard working people who went out in all weathers to fish for anchovies and sardines.
A good way to spend a couple of hours.

Interesting museum about the thriving port of L'Escala and its anchovy business. Sometimes it is free of charge entry on special holidays

My wife and I buy anchovies by the pound and love eating them. Brands of L'Escala are great in terms of taste of their fish and I was pleased to see a bit of that history. Hard work, and tough people is what the Museum shows, and there is a movie in the beginning of the visit that I recommend to anyone. Following the museum visit, go to one of the factories at the entrance in town and buy a jar of anchovies - they are delicious, comparable in taste with Calabrese anchovies (Ortiz) and much better than the typical anchovies American supermarkets sell (those are Moroccan most likely).
