Franconian Brewery Museum

In the historical, restored vaulted rooms of the former Benedictine Brewery on Michelsberg, the Franconian Brewery Museum is completely devoted to beer.

You can admire more than 1300 exhibits in the 900m² museum, which traces the creation of beer from the crop to the mug - all in the unique atmosphere of a brewery which was first mentioned in 1122 and is set in a landscape shaped by the long tradition of brewing beer.

"Knowing more about beer - gaining more from beer": this motto bears witness to the centre of expertise with a difference, created within the walls of the Brewery Museum. In close cooperation with the Verein Bierland Oberfranken, a regional association to which almost 200 Franconian breweries are affiliated, a seminar has been devised at the "Franconian Beer Academy" which spans several hours and transforms beer lovers into beer connoisseurs.
