Guests can fasten their virtual reality headsets and dive into the story of the Guinness world record holder. They will be immersed in the world of the Oldest Vine and live through her 450 years of history. The price of the experience includes a guided tour of the Old Vine house.
The 13th anniversary of the opening of the Old Vine House
It has been 13 years since the opening of the House of the Old Vine, the facade of which houses the noblest vine in the world on Maribor’s Lent. More than 50,000 visitors a year flock to the famed site from all over the world. The Old Vine House is home to the richest collection of excellent Styrian wines.
Even though there have not been as many guests as usual due to epidemiological restrictions, visitors from far and near are keen on knowing more about Maribor’s wine and culinary story in the upcoming months. With the situation gradually improving, guests can already look forward to The Old Vine Festival that will take place at the end of September. The festival encompasses theme nights dedicated to wine and culinary delights. In addition, the Old Vine House will host several wine-inspired nights throughout the summer.
