About
Owned and managed by the municipal authority, it is located at the pier of Camelle. lt opened on June 5 th 2015 and its main objective lies in protecting, preserving and spreading the artistic and personal legacy of Manfred Gnadinger, known by everyone as Man, the German of Camelle (Bóhringer, Germany 1936 - Camariñas - A Coruña - 2002). Undertook a journey from his native Germany that brought him to Camelle, where he stayed forever. lt was 1961 and he was twenty five years old. After approximately a decade living in a prívate house, he built his own house of tiny dimensions in a rocky area far off from the village where he started to develop his work: his garden-museum. Little by little he started parting with his externa! appearance and shaping the image that would characterize him forever. He decided to live alone,becoming one with nature, in the purest way possible.
