The Kocherwerk – Museum of the Screw and Fastener Industry offers a fascinating insight into how small screws transformed into major technological history. Interactive exhibitions, digital stations, and hands-on real machines await you in the historic Red Mill. Located directly on the Kocher-Jagst cycle path, the museum, with its bistro and terrace, also invites you to linger – a place that combines industry, region, and experience.

The nucleus of the screw industry in the Hohenlohe district. Many successful companies have emerged from this and this is also why Hohenlohe became known as the region of the world market leaders.

"As early as 1378, a mill in Ernsbach was first mentioned (...).
The historic building ensemble was architecturally redesigned with the greatest care and has been home to a permanent exhibition since 2021, which is dedicated to the history of the development of the screw and fastening industry in the region. The building received multiple awards in 2022"
