• Bread Museum in Radzionków, Poland is unique in Central Europe.
It presents the history of bread, machines and equipment used over time, utensils, furniture elements, but also archival documents, graphic documents, photographs and postcards. In addition, visitors are given the opportunity to make bread with their own hands.
The tour of the museum begins with the projection of a film about bread and the traditions of the craft field. Then, visitors are invited to take action: they wash their hands and manually knead their own baked goods, generally croissants. Once these are placed in the oven, visitors continue their tour of the museum, at the end of which they receive a gift of steaming croissants that they have prepared themselves.
The museum has open spaces, so all the exhibits can be touched and even tested. An additional attraction for children is the lesson held in a specially equipped room. This faithfully reproduces a classroom in an old school, where the little ones learn to write as in the old days, on wooden boards, using slate pencils.
The museum presents the entire bread-making process, from plowing the field to removing the baked products from the oven, as well as many other traditions from the history of bread, using the exhibits in its collection. Thus, visitors can see coins made from bread, work tools of bakers and pastry chefs of the past, printed advertisements and many other old objects that arouse both wonder and curiosity.
