Museum of Wine
About This Museum
Tucked away in the sun-drenched hills of Demir Kapija, the Museum of Wine feels less like an institution and more like a living scrapbook of our region's deepest passion. It tells a story that begins with the ancient Romans who first cultivated vines on these very slopes, a tradition that local families have lovingly preserved for generations. You won't just see dusty bottles here; you'll feel the weight of history in the hand-forged tools and smell the ghost of old vintages in the worn oak of the casks. It’s a quiet, almost sacred place that truly captures the soul of Macedonian winemaking.
Collection Highlights
Look for the collection of traditional 'burcan' clay jugs, used for centuries to store and age wine. The exhibit on local grape varieties like Vranec and Stanušina is particularly fascinating, showing how these unique grapes define our terroir.
Visitor Information
It's easy to find just off the main road through town—look for the sign near the old railway line. Do call ahead if you can, as their opening hours can be as relaxed as a Sunday afternoon.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a simple, rustic building with whitewashed walls and a terracotta tile roof that blends seamlessly into the surrounding vineyards.
