The Bread Museum in the agro-town of Botvinovo is a unique place dedicated to the history and culture of baking.
The museum displays various types of bread, tools and equipment used in the production process.
They also talk about the tricks of kneading dough. Visitors can see what the old furnaces looked like and what technologies were used in the past. You can also get acquainted with such ancient tools as a stick, millstones, cast iron pots of various capacities, grinding mortars, ancient scales, kerosene lamps and other very interesting exhibits.
They also tell us how our ancestors sowed bread, how they determined whether the land was ready for sowing, and what weather was favorable for the harvest. The staff of the Bread Museum shows rural life, interesting rituals and ancient dances.
The museum holds workshops and guided tours where you can learn about the process of baking bread, as well as try your hand at this craft. There are also tastings afterwards.
Bread occupies a special place in Belarusian culture and the museum emphasizes its importance as a symbol of life and well-being.
The museum is open to everyone, which makes it a great place for family holidays and educational excursions for children.
Visiting the "Bread Museum" in Botvinovo is not only an opportunity to learn more about baking, but also a chance to enjoy the atmosphere of the Belarusian village and its traditions.
