Archaeologists discover remains of a historic Jesuit brewery in Rymice
Archaeologists from the Kroměříž Region Museum have uncovered the remains of a 17th and 18th century Jesuit brewery during the renovation of a Baroque granary in Rymice, located in the Kroměříž Region. Part of the brewery's masonry was preserved beneath the clay floor of the cellar, which has now been exposed. This structure likely formed part of the technical equipment of the malt house, used for drying barley.
Some of the bricks in the exposed walls are charred. The masonry reveals various vents and early indications of vaulting. The remains of the brewery have been uncovered in about half of one of the granary cellars. In the coming days, workers will refill the area.
