Caves Byrrh Thuir
About
Caves Byrrh, located in the heart of Thuir, offers a spectacular journey into the industrial heritage of the Violet family and the world’s largest oak wine cask. Visitors walk through a labyrinth of historic tunnels, guided by interactive holograms that trace the founders’ story from humble beginnings to a global brand. The free discovery tour takes about 1 hour and 15 minutes, ending with a tasting of Byrrh. Guided tours, including the special Visionarium experience, enrich the narrative with multimedia elements and multilingual audio guides. The caves also host workshops such as adult pâtisserie classes, and hosts seasonal special events.*
