Meaux House of Brie Museum

It's a very small but significant little museum promoting the rise and popularity of Brie as a region and its famous cheese. It's house inside the same building that also serves as the Tourism Office of Meaux. It's a welcoming little office with most things Brie are available in the gift shop section (and available to purchase) and upstairs which dedicates more information and books on the background of Brie region and its cheese. I discovered that Brie-de-Meaux cheese is made from raw unpasteurized cow milk with delicious creamy centre. Funnily enough, it's not as popular in Meaux as I discovered. This little Brie-de-Meaux museum is well run by the same friendly and approachable staffs who run the Tourism Office of Meaux. A great place to start if you're visiting Meaux for the first time. Suitable for all ages.

I really enjoyed the tour located above the tourism office. The girls were very kind and helpful. I am not sure why some thought the price was too high, the tasting is 4€. Note, there is not much to see in Meaux to warrant a trip, but if you are already in the area then definitely stop by.

In and out in 30 min (unless you want to linger). Nice lesson about the production and history of brie cheese with some delicious samples (paired with red wine) at the tour's conclusion.

Small but nice museum. Try to catch the tasting which only happens once in a while

Very interesting self lead tour. Worth a visit.
