On 17 April 2008 PaprikaMolnar’s Paprika Museum opened and since then every April we like to look at and celebrate what we did, how we fared and what was good about the past year. I can hardly believe that in 2021 the Paprika Mill and Museum is celebrating its 13th birthday! A small family entreprise…
A few days after Palm Sunday now we’re getting ready to celebrate Easter in Hungary. The weather has suddenly become warm and now that we’re enjoying longer daylight the holiday finally seems real. The photo I chose of a Hungarian Easter table may not be fully authentic but it is picturesque, the ham is real…
It’s March 2021 and it’s high time to pick up posting in English after our last post Pesti paprika in September 2020. During the past 6 months PaprikaMolnar was busy coping with understaff on the workfloor, illness (nothing major, luckily) and a cutback in sales in the catering and tourist market. We can hardly wait…

So many things have happened in the past few weeks: Museum reopened with new Museum Garden and we’re writing the Paprika Book! PaprikaMolnar is happy to share the news with you: Paprika plantig: We finished planting successfully, so did our farmers.

4 June 1920 was a particularly dark day in the history of Hungary. Exactly 100 years ago on this day Hungarian politicians signed the Versailles Peace Treaty (known in Hungary by Trianon Treaty) that finalized Hungary’s fate after the lost war. The Treaty was unjust and exaggerating: it tore country, nation, property and families apart.…
