About Világörökségi Bormúzeum
The Világörökségi Bormúzeum presents the wine culture of Tokaj through an urban exhibition. The building is part of a cultural area near the historic core and the Bodrog. The programme allows you to understand the landscape without relying on visiting a commercial producer.
The exhibitions relate soil, cultivation, history and forms of work. The Tokaj-Hegyalja region is the axis of the presentation, which also covers other vineyard landscapes that are world heritage sites. The focus is on cultural knowledge, not an obligation to consume alcohol.
Allow time to follow the exhibition sequence, especially before heading out to the vineyards. The visit can complement the local history seen at the Tokaji Múzeum. Check the availability of interactive areas and opening schedule when planning a day in the centre.
