Created in 1999, this is the first beer museum in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. It is located in the former stables of the castle. The exhibits not only give an insight into the 6,000-year history of beer production, but also document the exciting development of the art of brewing in Luxembourg. On the ground floor, the most important steps in the production of beer are explained (crushing of malt, filtration, fermentation, etc.).Musée de la Tannerie.
This museum gives an idea of the importance of the tannery for the town, whose leather work dates back to 1644. In 1887, Wiltz had 28 tanneries, the last of which, the Ideal, the most important luxury leather factory in Western Europe, closed in 1961.Micro-Brewery.
Installed in 2000, this part of the museum works in conjunction with the Simon brewery. Its role is mainly educational in order to give an overview of the different production cycles, but it can still produce up to 50 litres of beer. It is one of the smallest breweries in the world.Jhang Primus Coffee. End your visit with a beer in this charming café, decorated with objects from various regional cafés that are now closed.

Situé dans les anciennes écuries du château, ce musée fait partie d'un ensemble regroupant l'art brassicole, la micro-brasserie SIMON, l'histoire des tanneries et le musée sur la bataille des Ardennes. On y accède pour un tarif unique modeste en passant par l'office du tourisme. Le cadre consacré à la bière est particulièrement joli et on y voit de multiples objets, verres, bouteilles, sous bocks. Des tableaux expliquent les différentes étapes de la transformation du houblon jusqu'à la bière. Collectionneurs et amateurs prendront du plaisir à découvrir ce lieu.
