Welcome to the Perugina®Chocolate House.
Opened in 1997 on Perugina®’s 90th anniversary, the Chocolate House enthrals visitors and “cioccolato” connoisseurs from far and wide. CNN named the “Casa del Cioccolato” one of the top five destinations for chocolate lovers, and The New York Times listed Chocolate House as a “must-see” for anyone visiting Perugia.
When you visit the Chocolate House first you’ll start with a tour of the Perugina® Museum, the Museo Storico Perugina®, where you’ll learn everything from how just one cocoa bean is magically transformed into rich chocolate to the roots of Perugina® history from its start as a tiny workshop producing sugared almonds, and its rise to become a chocolate icon and Italy’s most beloved chocolate maker.
Next you’ll encounter the heart of Perugina®: the chocolate factory. A raised path reveals a glimpse into the workshop and production line. Visitors look on as the famous Italian kisses, Baci® Perugina®, take shape and witness the masterful skill with which craftspeople bring Perugina chocolate to life. A collection of sensations and discoveries accompanied by intense aromas make this an unforgettable experience.
