For this purpose, inside an old traditional building, a history room has been installed, another room where the techniques used for the production of cutlery are explained, as well as two rooms containing a collection of knives, knives and scissors from Taramundi and the rest of the region. In an adjoining building, which was used by the former owners as a forge and carpentry workshop, a cellar or traditional cutlery workshop set in the first half of the twentieth century has been installed.
The Museum is located in the itinerary of the route of the ironworkers, which brings the visitor to know villages and spaces directly related to this trade, so it is an appropriate complement to correctly interpret the route of this route.

El yacimiento, conocido como Os Castros se localiza en la capital del concejo. Buena parte de su superficie se ha mantenido ajena al desarrollo urbano del municipio si bien la carretera que desciende hacia Mazonovo significó la destrucción algunas cabañas y parte de la muralla. En el año 2000 se iniciaron las excavaciones arqueológicas bajo patrocinio del Ayuntamiento de Taramundi, la Consejería de Cultura del Principado de Asturias y la meritoria colaboración de la asociación de hosteleros locales ANTURTA.
The castros are population centers of an eminently strategic and defensive nature. They are found throughout the northwest of the peninsula (castreña culture). These settlements arise in the transition from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age, reaching its peak during the Second Iron Age.
The town of Vegadeo has the peculiarity of being crossed by two rivers: the Monjardín and the Suarón, which have twelve bridges that cross them (six each). Taking advantage of this circumstance, the idea was that visitors to Vegadeo could get to know the town center by crossing these bridges, and enriching the visit with a sculpture on each of them.
Through different media (audiovisual, photographic and computer) we can learn about the Eo River, the different species that inhabit it or the relationship of man with the river; how humans have taken advantage of the wealth offered by its waters and, above all, the importance that fishing has had in the area.
