The paper mill is an absolute must for Basel. Paper making is still practiced here. Many things can be viewed and tried out live.

Hiking

In the building of the medieval paper mill, the museum leads over four floors through the history of paper, writing and writing, on to type casting and letterpress printing to the finished book. The museum has a remarkable collection, some of which are over a thousand years old. The didactically structured exhibitions alternate with authentic workshops in which production is carried out on old machines and you are given the opportunity to do your own thing.
