Museum of Spices
The only in Russia and the third in the world
Mission of the museum is to represent an incredible world of spices within all its varieties of kinds and aromas, and to discover how this world has influenced the humankind.
The exhibition of the museum displays all known herbs and spices in its natural state, shows where they are cultivated and harvested and then produced into aromatic seasonings and spices which follow us daily through all our life. Our visitors discover how spices had contributed into the world trade, how they became a source of immense wealth for some nations and crushing hardships for the others.
The excursion is accompanied with the guide and continues about one hour. For the groups we offer an English and German speaking assistance available on request. After the excursion you can stay in our cozy coffee-shop and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee brewed on our special recipes, with sweets and desserts. And also visit our spice store where you can find specialties from all over the world.
