Discover Bösing: Wine, Culture and Hotels in Pezinok

Pezinok combines its enduring tradition of winegrowing and winemaking with historic sites and educational trails. As a result, very different themes come together during a stay: the history of the free royal town, the landscape around the Little Carpathians and first-hand insights into winegrowing.

Culture

A central place for the history of wine is the Malokarpatské múzeum v Pezinku. It focuses primarily on the traditional culture of winegrowing and winemaking in the Little Carpathians and is housed in an authentic Renaissance building from the 17th century in the historic centre of Pezinok. The museum also presents two permanent interactive exhibitions and the largest collection of historic wine presses in Central Europe. Every guided tour concludes with a glass of local wine; there are also interactive tastings such as Symfónia pezinských vín, Víno a čokoláda and Degustácia v úplnej tme.

Historic landmarks can also be found throughout the townscape. The Mariánsky stĺp, with a statue of the Immaculate Conception, was erected in 1749, while the town hall, the Radnica on Radničné námestie, dates from the mid-17th century. The Historický okruh passes preserved historical sites from the history of the free royal town of Pezinok and is intended to introduce visitors to its history and local traditions. Pezinok also has a large number of preserved historic monuments.

Wine and Cuisine

Vinobranie is a traditional harvest festival celebrating the work of local vintners and winegrowers. The festival includes culinary specialities and an extensive cultural programme. Pezinok’s distinctive cuisine is becoming an increasingly popular attraction for tourists and daily visitors to the town. In this way, the culinary side complements the enduringly visible winegrowing tradition and cultural offerings without being limited to a single event.

Nature

Zámocký park in the centre of Pezinok is a place for relaxation and is also visited by families with children. The lake at its centre provides a habitat for waterfowl and fish. The Lesnícky náučný chodník offers a different way to experience the landscape, leading through the forests and natural areas around Pezinok while providing information about the local flora and fauna, forestry and nature conservation.

Another educational trail leads through Stará hora. The oldest vineyards in the cadastral area of Pezinok have been preserved there. The Banský náučný chodník leads to sites around Pezinok where gold was mined until the 19th century and other minerals until the 20th century.
