Museum of Polish Vodka

A guided tour of the museum will be followed by a professional vodka tasting. After this event you will be well prepared not only historically but also practically for a Polish wedding and trained in Polish alcohol drinking traditions. Na zdrowie!

Please note The museum can only be visited with a museum guide. The tours take place every 20 minutes, 40 minutes after every full hour the tours are in English.

T he Vodka Museum, established in 2018, requires visitors to be accompanied by an in-house guide. The guided tour spans 60 minutes and concludes with a vodka tasting experience, included in the ticket price.

Key tour topics include:

• Defining Polish vodka (protected geographical indication)
• Emphasizing the significance of raw materials in production
• Exploring Polish traditions related to consumption
• Detailing the various stages of production
• Showcasing an impressive exhibition of vodka bottles

Operational until 2007, the building itself was a former vodka production facility. Financial challenges led to the company’s bankruptcy, and the museum now resides in this historic venue, considered an ideal location for such a cultural institution in Poland.

D iscover everything there is to know about vodka on this site. Following the tour, engage in a professional vodka tasting session. During this experience, you’ll gain insights into why freezing vodka is not recommended.

One notable aspect of this museum is the holistic view it provides. While there are specific elements that may not appeal to everyone, they do not undermine the overall presentation concept.

Finally, it’s worth noting that the Museum of Polish Vodka is situated within the Praga-Koneser Centre, one of Warsaw’s trendiest locations. We firmly believe that your time here will be an exceptionally positive experience.

Vodka bar with terrace

The vodka bar is located on the 3rd and 4th floor of the building. You can reach the bar from the main entrance of the museum. Go inside, pass the reception on the left and take the lift (or walk) to the 3rd floor. From the terrace you have a beautiful view of the Koneser Center and in the evening you can enjoy beautiful sunsets from here.

Chocolate café Wedel

To the right of the museum reception is a Wedel café. In addition to a coffee, it serves delicious cakes and chocolate products, especially hot chocolate in winter. The Wedel chocolate factory is located just a kilometre from the museum. This is a Polish and mainly Warsaw chocolate company.

The museum only has in-house guides. However, we co-operate closely with the museum when it comes to guided tours in German or English. If you are interested, please use the contact form at the bottom of this overview.
