From Miskolc's city centre to the Avas: A cultural and gastronomic journey through time
This thematic experience tour starts from the historic city centre of Miskolc and takes participants to one of the city's most unique areas, the Avas, where the past and present form a distinctive unity. During the programme, the city walk and gastronomic experience are closely intertwined, providing participants with a comprehensive insight into Miskolc's cultural and wine heritage.
City centre icons: A walk through history and culture
The walk begins in front of the Tourinform Office, then proceeds through the historic city centre, passing by the Szinva Terrace area and the building of the Miskolc National Theatre.
Along the route, not only do the city's iconic locations come to life, but also the stories that have shaped Miskolc's everyday life, literary and cultural scene.
Centuries-old cellars and the heritage of Miskolc's wine culture: The Avasi wine cellar district
The bustling city centre is quickly replaced by the calmer, nature-infused atmosphere of the Avas. The narrow streets of the Avasi wine cellar district, its centuries-old cellars and press houses reveal a unique world that tells the story of Miskolc's former wine trade and production. The area is home to nearly 800 cellars, whose histories are closely intertwined with the city's development. The memories of the former entertainment district, its literary connections, and personal stories further enrich the experience.
A wine experience in the heart of the Avas: Tasting at local wineries
As part of the programme, several local wineries offer tastings, allowing participants to discover the characteristic flavours of the wine region and the traditions of local winemaking. During the tour, the gastronomic experience and historical background complement each other, providing an opportunity to uncover the stories behind the wines.
A panorama above the city: From the Avasi Lookout Tower to the historic church garden
The walk concludes at the Avasi Lookout Tower, where the city's panorama unfolds from a unique perspective. From here, the route leads back to the city centre via the Avasi Reformed Church and the historic cemetery garden, heading towards Erzsébet Square.
The programme is available in English, German, Russian, Polish, and Finnish, for both individual and group tourists.
