On your route at the village Pitrofos you can visit the unique Cyclades Olive Museum and enjoy the tour wich lasts about an hour but worth the time! You will have a small but delicius treat with a homemade local tee, a local olive and a homemade cookie. You will learn many things about the qualities of olive oil, the procedure of traditional extraction, and the history of the building. It is better to make a phonecall at +30 6932731776 in order to arange a visit. If you haven't made an apointment make a phonecall and if you are lucky and the owner is upstairs, he is always willing to open it for you.
It is a 400 years old animal powered olive mill which keeps it's original equipment.
It is ranked
as the 6th best museum in Greece,
as the best museum out of 87 in Cyclades and
as the best attraction and best museum in Andros island, for the year 2016 by TripAdvisor.
