Suitable for
For families with children aged 6 and up
The cheese grotto offers a fascinating exhibition with exciting insights into the world of cheese – ideal for curious explorers from around 6 years old.
While there are no interactive elements, the wealth of information and the special atmosphere make the visit an educational experience.
For younger children, the exhibition might be less exciting – we therefore recommend the visit primarily for school-aged children and older.
