Szamos Marzipan Museum

The Marzipan Museum in Szentendre is a place presenting the history and methods of making marzipan and the production and decoration of various marzipan ornaments. As part of the exhibition, you can see ancient and modern devices and tools for the production and processing of marzipan, as well as an exhibition of various marzipan decorations. The most interesting products include the marzipan model of the Hungarian parliament and figurines of fairy-tale and film characters (e.g. Muppets).

The location of the museum in Szentendre is not accidental. This area specializes in the production of almonds, and marzipan production has a very long history here. The museum has its headquarters in a building where for decades a café and confectionery specializing in marzipan products have been operating. So you can not only admire the products and learn the techniques of marzipan production, but also try sweets on the spot or buy something to take away.
