Tokaj Museum
Tokaji Múzeum
A town museum housed in a former 18th-century Greek merchant’s house, telling the history of Tokaj’s wine trade and local heritage.
The Tokaj Museum is on the old main street. The building was originally the residence of an 18th-century Greek wine merchant. Its exhibits cover the cultivation, production, and trade history of Tokaj wine, including old wine tools, measuring vessels, wine labels, and trade records of shipments to Poland and the Russian court. There are also religious art and local folk collections. The museum is not large, and about an hour is enough. It makes a good option on a rainy day or before a wine tasting to learn the background. It is usually closed on Mondays, and admission costs a few thousand forints.
Opening hours
