Saxon Brewery Museum Rechenberg

The complete preservation of the historically valuable building substance, from the brewhouse in 1780 to the underground vaulted cellars in unity with the complete and fully functional brewing technology, is unique.

You are therefore cordially invited to Rechenberg-Bienenmühle in the Eastern Ore Mountains to visit the "Saxon Brewery Museum".

Beer Route:

Back in 1558, Caspar IV von Schönberg transferred the brewing rights to the Rechenberg manor, making the Rechenberg private brewery one of the oldest breweries in Saxony. The buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries have stood the test of time and were painstakingly restored between 1995 and 2002 to become one of the most important sights in the region - the "Saxon Brewery Museum Rechenberg".From the brewhouse dating back to 1780 to the fully preserved and fully functional brewing technology and the underground vaulted cellars, the entire process of traditional beer production can be followed on a guided tour. After the tour, you can experience real beer conviviality and rustic coziness during a beer tasting in the magnificent cross vaults of the former malthouse, today's Schalander. The popular Rechenberg beer specialties are brewed and bottled in a newly built, ultra-modern brewery on the old site right next to the historic brewery.
