's food culture brought to life
The Mühlerama reveals what often remains hidden: the origin of our food. From the grain to the milling to the baking, our museum shows how much manual labor, expertise, and history go into a simple loaf of bread.
And this is where the circle closes with Terroir Zürisee. Terroir means origin, soil, climate – and the people who work with respect for nature. While our exhibitors at the market show how the Lake Zurich region can be tasted, the Mühlerama shows how landscape and culture also take shape on the plate.
A visit to the museum deepens what you discover at the terroir market: an appreciation for regional products, craftsmanship, and authentic food.
With the combo ticket, you can Mühlerama your tasting tour of the Terroir Zürisee a visit to the Mühlerama Museum.

Our motivation
The history of our town is closely linked to winegrowing – even the coat of arms of our district, Zurich-Riesbach, features a vine knife – because what is now an area dedicated to culture and enjoyment was once part of a lively winegrowing region that stretched around Lake Zurich.
The term "terroir" describes the complexity of the entire environment in which a wine is produced: vines, soil, and climate—but also the people, their attitudes, and their craftsmanship. And there are many layers around Lake Zurich. Glaciers formed moraine hills with ideal slopes, and the lake provides a mild (wine-growing) climate, so that viticulture has shaped the region for centuries.
We build on this complexity. With Terroir Zürisee , we Terroir Zürisee what makes our region special: diversity, quality, and personality. And the producers who make it happen. We see ourselves as a meeting place and therefore create an event at Terroir that is entirely dedicated to tasting, personal exchange, and, above all, good products in good company.
