Plzeň has been a brewing center since medieval times and gave the world the Pilsner lager in the 19th century; Bohemian glassmaking has been practiced in the region for centuries with family-run workshops preserving old techniques.
Conservation
Both workshops and breweries encourage responsible visiting—follow site rules, avoid disturbing production areas, and support local craft by buying directly from producers to sustain traditional practices.
