Pick Salami & Szeged Paprika Museum


Between the two bridges spanning the Tisza is this museum with two floors of exhibits showing the methods of salami production and the cultivating, processing and packaging of Szeged's 'red gold'. It's a lot more interesting than you might think and you even get samples of both salami and paprika.
