1777 Wine Cellar Museum
“Crama 1777” Museum is a reconstruction of one of the oldest wine cellars in Romania. It existed in the same village until 1985, originally with only one building. The cellar is built of oak beams, with a shingle roof, housing the tools used to make wine. The entrance to the cellar conceals the year the cellar was founded, along with the story of the saw teeth, carved into the wood, and their role in pulling the grapes through the barrel. The entrance to the museum is made from the porch. A large hall with wooden walls and a brick floor houses the collection of tools used in the wine sector: chippers, crushers, presses, wine pumps, slurry pumps, a large barrel (budan), even a plow. In addition to these objects, there is also a nursery (tools used in wood processing), a collection of old labels, but also a wine cellar, where award winning wines from Dealu Mare area are included.
