    The Luisenhütte Wocklum (also Wocklumer Hammer) in the Balver district of Wocklum is the oldest fully furnished blast furnace in Germany.
    The history of the Luisenhütte possibly goes back to 1732. However, there is only evidence that the von Landsberg family built an ironworks in 1748.

        The completely restored Luisenhütte is a beautiful adventure museum. In the museum you can experience how iron was produced in the Luisenhütte and processed into cast products.
        Definitely worth a visit.
        Unfortunately the museum is currently closed due to Covid19.
