PARMA HAM MUSEUM AND TORRECHIARA CASTLE

A half-day tour to learn the secrets of Italy’s most famous ham in its own "native land".

Your experience will start with a visit to a museum entirely dedicated to the history and production of Parma Ham, followed by a small tasting of local cured meats.

The exploration of Parma’s hills will then continue in Torrechiara, an impressive and beautifully-decorated castle built in the 15th century by the valiant knight Pier Maria Rossi as a gift for the love of his life.

The entrance fee is € 15 per person, including tickets to the Parma Ham Museum and Torrechiara Castle, plus a small tasting of local cured meats with a glass of wine.
