Once inside, spend as long as you like exploring the museum’s fascinating exhibitions, which chronicle the history of Parmesan, Italy’s iconic cheese. Discover the different regions in which the cheese is made, watch the traditional production and maturation process, and learn how it became one of Italy’s most famous exports. Finally, learn about the many use for Parmesan and sample a selection of different parmesan cheeses (cheese tasting is included in your ticket).

Museo del Parmigiano Reggiano, Parma, Italy

  • Museo del Parmigiano Reggiano, Parma, Italy
    The museum is located just outside the city of Parma. Parmigiano-Reggiano (also known as Parmesan cheese) is a typical product of Made in Italy. It is a hard granular cheese with a long and natural maturation. It’s a highly concentrated cheese and contains only 30% water and 70% nutrients. Parmigiano-Reggiano is produced exclusively in the provinces of Parma, Reggio Emilia, Modena and parts of the provinces of Mantua and Bologna, on the plains, hills and mountains enclosed between the rivers Po and Reno.  The material displayed at the museum was collected from all 5 provinces where Parmigiano-Reggiano is produced.  The objects on display can be placed in a time frame between the second half of the XIX century and the first half of the XX century. All objects necessary for the transformation of milk are present in the oldest part of the building, whereas in the newer part of the building are those elements of the production process which do not involve transformation.
