Brewery Museum
About This Museum
Tucked away in the historic cellars of Plzeň, a city synonymous with golden lager, the Brewery Museum feels like stepping into the cool, quiet heart of Czech beer culture. You won't just find dusty glass cases here; the air is thick with the scent of malt and history. Wander past remarkably detailed models of medieval breweries, their tiny copper kettles hinting at centuries of tradition. The journey culminates in a fully functional, modern bottling line that clatters to life, connecting old-world craft directly to the pilsner in your hand.
Collection Highlights
The star exhibits are the intricate scale models depicting brewery life from the 19th century, complete with miniature figures and equipment. Don't miss the chance to see a real, clattering bottling plant in action right inside the museum. Of course, no visit is complete without a tasting of unfiltered Pilsner Urquell straight from an oak barrel.
Visitor Information
It's wise to book your tasting session in advance, especially on weekends when it gets busy. The cellar corridors are atmospheric but can be cool year-round, so bringing a light sweater isn't a bad idea.
Architecture & Building
The museum is housed within a labyrinth of authentic medieval cellars, with low, vaulted brick ceilings and stone floors that have felt the tread of brewers for generations.
