Cocoa has been tickling taste buds for centuries, from the spicy drink in the Maya and Aztec civilisations to the popular sweet chocolate milk in Europe. With more than three people out of four loving chocolate, it’s hardly surprising that there is an enormous fascination for this exquisite treat.

This tour aims to bring to life the 4,000-year-old history of chocolate in words, pictures, and flavours. The museum submerges you in the exciting world of chocolate, taking you on a journey of the senses through time. Young or old, passionate chocoholic or simply just interested, the Chocolate Museum will stimulate your fascination.

The museum is composed of three parts, telling the storey of the origin and evolution of chocolate through a unique collection of almost a thousand objects. Besides the history, the museum also reveals how chocolate is made, with special attention for the variety of raw ingredients and the development of the production process.
