The mighty water wheels turn constantly in the reconstruction of the historic waterworks at the Hall Mint.
The water-powered drive for the cylindrical stamping machine, which was a technical leader in its time, has been rebuilt by hand on its original location.
The roller minting machine was considered a technical sensation in the Middle Ages and was able to mint around 4000 coins a day. By way of comparison, a normal workman could only mint about 300 coins a day by hand.
