The Museum received an investment of more than € 350,000, part of the Promotion Plan of the Tourism Product of Axarquia, an investment that has been divided between the Diputación de Málaga, the Junta de Andalucía and the state.
The Museum is located in a XVI century building, which was restored by a project the Escuela Taller "La Posada del Arriero" during the years 2004 and 2005, home of the former Chamber of Agriculture (Cámara Agraria); it is a simple but noble building, representative for the popular Andalusian architecture.
In 2008 the project of the Casa Museo de la Miel received the prize for best tourism project in Málaga and since then the great turistic project of Colmenar has been taking shape both in the building that it houses as in the development of explanations and promotions..
