Memory and Transmission of Monégasque Cuisine
As part of Monaco’s European Heritage Days, Memory and Transmission of Monégasque Cuisine highlights one of the Principality’s most distinctive forms of living heritage: its traditional food culture.
Why This Event Matters
Monégasque cuisine is closely tied to family traditions, local identity and the passing down of recipes from one generation to the next. This heritage-focused event offers visitors an accessible introduction to that culinary memory, showing how traditional dishes continue to connect Monaco’s past with everyday life today.
What to Expect
On the square in front of the Musée du Vieux Monaco, visitors can discover a selection of traditional Monégasque recipes and learn more about the role food plays in preserving local culture. Recipe sheets are distributed during the event, giving participants a practical way to take part in the transmission of this culinary heritage beyond the Heritage Days weekend.
