Jan Becher Museum
Jan Becher Muzeum
The old distillery museum for Becherovka, the herbal liqueur known as the 'Thirteenth Spring.' Visit the cellars and taste three liqueurs.
Becherovka is a herbal liqueur that has been produced in Karlovy Vary since 1807. It is blended from more than twenty herbs and spices and is known as the city's '13th spring'. The museum is housed in the old distillery and displays the legend of the recipe, a cellar of old barrels and historical advertisements. At the end of the visit you taste several liqueurs. The tour takes about an hour, with guided tours available in several languages, and advance booking is recommended. The shop at the entrance sells limited editions. The museum is in the New Town, near the city's main bus station, and may be closed on Mondays.
