In the historic basement of Alatskivi Castle, a workshop led by a master potter awaits you, where you can sculpt cups, bowls, or other clay objects yourself. This experience combines creativity, craftsmanship, and the unique atmosphere of the manor. Book a workshop in advance! However, if you visit the castle with children and master Tanel is working at the same time, you can leave the children to sculpt in the pottery room—it's often the children's favorite activity at the manor! Tanel glazes the finished objects himself and sends them to your home by mail. Beautiful, one-of-a-kind objects sculpted by Tanel himself can be purchased as souvenirs. Take a refreshing, creative break in a pottery workshop at Alatskivi Castle!

When speaking of genuine Estonian flavours, we must start with bread – rye bread, which is not just food for Estonians. When homesick, almost every Estonian will crave for bread and eating it will help them cope with their homesickness. Bread, bread-making, and the smell of warm bread are deeply related to being an Estonian.Muhu bread also grew out of the desire to bake delicious bread for one's family at home. Our bread is tasty and healthy – you will simply not get enough of it.At Muhu Pagar Bakery, you can buy different kinds of bread, other baked goods, and pastries.
