In the Kalocsa Porcelain Manufacture our visitors can watch and follow every angle of the production of the porcelain from the pouring of the molds to the firing in the kilns. Since 1996, separate from painting, we have expanded to the manufacturing of porcelain and now the majority of our products are produced here. We present you the pouring of the porcelain, its cleaning, and how the glaze is applied. If you feel like trying out the process you can find out how liquid plaster becomes a slim vase, or a tiny slipper.
Continuing through the production you can have a peek at how our expert painters bring to life the distinguished Kalocsa style with the gentle stroke of a brush.
At the end of the tour we present you with the final firing of the porcelain. Afterwards you can see all of our products on display and shop for bargain priced items.
Length of tour: 40-50 minutes. Tours are availible in Hungarian, English, German, and Italian.
We are pleased to welcome you.
